One of the greatest promises is in this very letter fromPeter; that we might partake of Jesus’ divine nature (2 Peter 1:4) AND to escape the that is in this world through lust.
Amazing! How can we participate, share, or in any way partake of his divine nature? I have absolutely no idea how God imparts that, I just know scripture tells us he does. He gives to us the ability yo overcome every temptation (Romans 6, Philippians 4:13).
We no longer have to suffer at the whims of our bodies. We can control our unhealthy appetites through scripture, prayer, obedience, and self discipline.
