FAQ # 86

QUESTION  86 :  In chapter 5 (Justification) you said something like we become divine when born of the spirit, isn’t that incorrect, for only God is divine?

I had cross out 'our divine nature' in chapter 5, on paper, because of the minds of people today that would twist that. If contended provide this verse, “partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust" (2 Peter 1:2-4).

According to the dictionary, divine means “Like God or a god.” Therefore, when I said we are "apart of the divine nature" or "our divine nature," I mean what Paul said, “partakers of the divine nature.” That is, we partake in the heavenly order of things. We become 'sons of God' and thus have his spiritual DNA in us, not that we are “GOD” ourselves.
