SCRIPTURE

"seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;" — 2 Peter 1:3 (ASV)

According as his divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue:

It is through knowing God that we realize that his divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, for all these things are in him; and as we know him, trust him, love him, and become like him, we also come to possess all these precious things in him.
