What does the Bible say about being partakers of Christ?

In 2 Peter 1:4, the Apostle Peter explains that believers are granted exceeding great and precious promises that enable them to be partakers of the divine nature. This means that through faith in Christ, believers share in the spiritual blessings and attributes of God. They are transformed by the Holy Spirit and partake in a new life that reflects the character of Christ. This duality of human essence—the sinner and saint—demonstrates the profound change that God's grace initiates in the life of a believer, resulting in a new identity and purpose in Christ.
