How do we know the divine nature is communicated to us?
Answered in 1 source
The divine nature is communicated through God's promises, which illustrate how believers are transformed into His likeness.
The communication of the divine nature to believers is grounded in the promises of God, as articulated in Scripture. These promises are acts of divine commitment that assure us of His transformative work. By participating in these promises, believers undergo a fundamental change that enables them to reflect God's character—a process initiated at regeneration and continued throughout the believer's sanctification. As noted in 2 Corinthians 3:18, believers are changed from glory to glory, indicating a progressive transformation into God’s likeness, marking the essence of a life lived in accordance with the principles of sovereign grace.
