"After You"

One of the most amazing scriptures is found in 2 Peter. "by which have been given us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust" (2 Peter 1:4).

The amazing truth is that we are given part of his divine nature.

His nature changes who we are. It changes our lives. It causes us to love God and love others (1 John 4:13,17,19).

We demonstrate this love by treating others as though they are more important than we are (Philippians 2:3; 1 John 4:7-11).
