To be one with God means to be in close proximity with Him. That is not to say you will be physically beside God; God is not physical, and neither are the souls of those who have ascended. This could be referring to heaven, not as clouds and all the things you see in movies, but as heaven as it truly is - a closer state to God.
Another interpretation of this is that God created us in His own image; our souls that is. Therefore, it is as if we are the same as God in the respect that our souls are completely spiritual in nature. This is opposite to our bodies, which are physical in nature.
It would be useful if you could say where exactly in the new testament it says that.

First let's look at the Old Testament. The Old Testament contains the "Old Covenant", the Law of Moses mainly, but also includes the creation of heaven and earth, the history of the Hebrew people, and prophecies. The New Testament begins a new era with the predicted Messiah coming to earth, dying on the cross and resurrecting the third day to reconcile men and women young and old back to God. This is the "New Covenant" that God has made with people since the death of His Son, Jesus Christ, the predicted Messiah. It contains new information about God and how He wants people to love and trust in Him. The Old testament contained many laws derived from the Ten Commandments that a person was to try and live up to. It was an impossibility, but it did point the way to God, but would not save them. The New Testament has done away with the "works of the Law" and has replaced that with Faith in God for salvation. The medium we go to between God and ourselves is through Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only way to the Father (God in heaven). The New Testament is God's new way to Him. Actually salvation by faith is not new as Abraham believed God and it was accounted righteousness to him, but it was a very difficul road to God. Now that Faith/salvation has been explained in the New Testament we can see it much clearer
