"How are we partakers of the divine nature? How many natures does the Christian have?" "This expression is not different from the concepts of being born again, born from above (cf. John 3:3; James 1:18; 1 Peter 1:23), being in Christ (cf. Rom. 8:1), or being the home of the Trinity (John 14:17-23). The precious promises of salvation result in becoming God's children in the present age (John 1:12; Rom. 8:9; Gal. 2:20; Col. 1:27), and thereby sharing in God's nature by the possession of His eternal life. Christians do not become little gods, but they are "new creations" (2 Cor. 5:17) and have the Holy Spirit living in them (1 Cor. 6:19,20). Moreover, believers will partake of the divine nature in a greater way when they bear a glorified body like Jesus Christ (Phil. 3:20,21; 1 John 3:1-3)." --Nolan |
