Helen Cannon focuses on these key verses in Peter's second apostolic letter, exhorting us to pursue a deep friendship with God in order to experience the reality of His transforming presence living inside us:
"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires."
