Sermon 24 August 2014 Clayton Nel

2. 2 Peter 1:3-4
His divine power has given us everything we
need for a godly life through our knowledge
of him who called us by his own 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.
