Theosis

Another Ethiopian Church question:
In recent years there has been an infusion of theosis teachings
in the Coptic church, which isn't a traditional teaching and is
likely the result of ignorance about theology over the last
couple centuries. The traditional teaching in the Alexandrian
tradition is that of St Athanasius and his teachings on
theopoiesis - the deification of man's flesh and spirit as the
end prize and union with Christ.
How has the Ethiopian church been teaching in this regard?
In Christ
