Summary/Abstract: Deification is the central idea in St. Maximus the Confessor’s teaching. St. Maximus explains this mystery using the idea of logos of existence, which in his understanding means divine ideas and all beings. The deification of man is possible thanks to the mysterious relationship that exists between the Divine Logos and the Logos of Creation. The teaching of followers is based on the differentiation of three crucial terms which connect ontology and divine economy of salvation: logos of being, logos of well-being and the logos of eternal being.
