Peter, the father of the living Church, was in prison knowing his time was short. He penned 2 Peter to prepare the Church for difficult days ahead. In this Part 1 of 2 message, we see how the Father has divinely enabled all believers to “partake of His nature,” through the work of the atoning Son, and empowering Holy Spirit. A brief gaze at the tri-unity of God as the foundation for the essence of life, and goal of each believer, is presented.
