Sanctification - Definition Of Human Nature

2 Peter 1:6. As God created us, the definition of human nature can't be fully defined without defining our relationship with God. Our human nature at it's best is set aside for God. This is where we put God first. This is where we are willing vessels that purify ourselves to be set aside for God's purpose (1 John 3:3, "And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure"). We progressively become sanctified in our relationship with God. We become partakers of God's divine nature ( 2 Peter 1:4-7, "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity"). As we purify ourselves in our worship of God we become increasingly sanctified taking on His divine nature of love and goodness. This is the true purpose of our human nature.
