- God is not "angry". His disposition to mankind never changed. Mankind's disposition to God is what changed with the fall.
- We were created in the image and likeness of God. The image is something we never lost. The likeness is something which we strive to fulfill (see Theosis).
- We believe in a divine communion with God. And this communion, known as theosis is the entire purpose of creation.
- Adam and Eve were not created perfect. Rather, they were created innocent. It was always to be their purpose to achieve theosis.
