God became man so man would become God

Regarding this idea as a heresy, 70 Christian scholars recently petitioned the proponents to desist from preaching it. There was a truly amazing outcome after the proponents’ response.
In the December 2009 issue of "Christian Research Journal" representatives of the petitioning scholars confirmed they were wrong in their arguments against the idea.
This means the idea was theologically tested true! Orble readers can hear it for themselves in a podcast:

Carrying the good news to Orble community
Some local Christians in Sydney decided this week to tell Orble readers the news here in http://religion.orble.com/ via Big Cat's column in www.Chatterpillar.net, inviting further comments after this initial response of one (in italics) talking with me (Big Cat).
I’ve always said God is The true King.
That’s right. The universe was created by the oneness that has always been, outside of time as we know it. This oneness has a head or centre in which there have always been three Persons (non proper-noun capitalization reserved for such members). Adam was created as the first man outside of the Godhead, with an eternal plan to bring mankind into the oneness through the intervention in history by Christ.
Okay. So when the true King brought forth Adam, He regarded Adam as a son, right? I mean, this isn’t His first born, but His second, right?
Go on.
His first ‘son’ is Emmanuel, however, as far as anyone can remember, they’ve always been together. Both are for the most part exactly the same. The only way you can tell them apart is that Emmanuel treats his Father the true King with great reverence and respect due a father, and the true King gives over to Emmanuel everything as his firstborn son.
Let’s relate this. For many people, the name “God” refers to whomever/whatever is perceived to be in spiritual control. But in Truth there is only one oneness, headed by the God-head. Recognizing the Person sent to bridge mankind into the oneness, Christians call Him “Christ”. But many are unsure whether this refers to just the Son or all three Persons in the God-head.
Well, let me continue. As with Emmanuel, The true King shared his life with Adam. The true King and his new son are essentially of and in the same spirit; the child Adam shares in the life of his father.
There is much confusion over the detail of God’s plan which sent the Son for God to become man, so that mankind could come into the oneness or, put precisely, become God in life and nature but not in the Godhead.
Orble readers are invited to continue the dialogue by appending comments in the usual way.
