That We Might Be Partakers

Talk about “power to become sons (and daughters) of God;” this is one “exceeding great and precious promise” that only God Himself could bring to pass.

[Jn 1:12; 2 Pet 1:4]

After all, think about it, how is it that God, thru Christ (our Creator) can change the “nature” of whosoever believes...and how can any man who is in Christ become “a new creature?”

[2 Pet 1:4; 2 Cor 5:17]

It is the outworking of the Spirit of God from within “(causing us) to walk in His statutes, and keep His judgments.”

[Ezek 36:26-27]

To become “partakers of the divine nature” of God is a  “covenant promise” privilege that each believer has, in Christ...”for it is God that worketh in (us), both to will and to do His good pleasure.”

[2 Pet 1:3-4; Phil 2:13]

Never forget that all that we are, or ever hope to be, is because of Christ's finished work on the cross.
