“We have become, as Peter puts it, ‘partakers of the divine nature’ (2 Peter); we have received the disposition of God Himself. We look at things from the Godward angle rather than from the human and carnal and sinful one…. I need emancipation; I need to be lifted to another realm; I need a force and a strength and a power that I have not got myself. That is my need, and here is the answer: I am given a faith- I am given an outlook and understanding- I am introduced to a source of power- I see something that that other person has never seen. I see beyond. I see a might and a power that is even greater than all that is opposed to me.”
"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness 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 and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires." 2 Peter 1:3,4
