His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. (2 Peter 1:3-4)
God acts in power, glory, and goodness to give us both basic knowledge of God and precious promises of God. Through all of these--promises, knowledge, goodness, glory, and power--humanity may take part in God's very nature. Theosis! I want to live in full partnership with the living God.
