Sermon audio from Church of the Living God in Traverse City, MI

“To achieve this [‘share in the divine nature’ vs. 4), you will need to add/supply/equip virtue to your faith, and then knowledge to your virtue; to knowledge, add discipline; to discipline, add endurance; to endurance, add godliness; to godliness, add affection for others as sisters and brothers; and to affection, at last, add love.”
1 Peter 1:5-9
“We have received God’s great and valuable promises, so we might escape the corruption of worldly desires and share in the divine nature by ‘becoming like Christ’ and living forever in eternity.”
2 Peter 1:1-4
