2. Jesus' will for us
Jesus wants us to be conformed to His image.
Everyone who beholds the glory of the Lord is
transformed into that same image. (2 Cor.
3:18).

3. What is His glory?
Jesus' glory is His life—
a life of victory over sin.

4. Rev. 3:12
"He who overcomes,
I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God,
and he shall go out no more.
I will write on him the name of My God and the name of
the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes
down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on
him My new name."
Rev. 3:12

5. Our promises
He who overcomes!
Jesus is looking for the overcomers when He
writes to the angels of the seven churches in
Asia minor.
The promises belong to those who
overcome.

6. How to overcome?
The power to live a victorious life can be found
in the Holy Spirit, whom God gives to those
who obey Him. (Acts 5:32).
By being obedient to the Holy Spirit's
promptings in our heart, we receive
power to deny the sinful lusts and desires
that dwell in our body.

7. Continue in sin?
Jesus opened the way to a life of triumph and victory over
sin. This life meant so much for Paul that he virtually cried
out, "What shall we say then?
Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?
Certainly not!
How shall we who died to sin live any longer
in it?" Rom 6:1-2.

8. More than forgiveness
The salvation that is preached through the
gospel goes far deeper than the common
understanding of salvation.
The work God does in His disciples leads those
who believe to partake of God's own
nature.

9. It is written:
"As His divine power has given to us all things that
pertain to life and godliness,
through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and
virtue,
by which have been given to us exceedingly great and
precious promises,
that through these you may be partakers of the
divine nature,

10. Accept our calling
God will mightily strengthen you who sense God's
inner promptings to become a whole-hearted disciple.
There is no limit to what the gospel can
accomplish in your life.

11. An exalted life
Think to partake of God's own nature—His
mercy, love, righteousness and goodness!
This exalted life is set aside for His disciples.

12. Find brotherhood
If you hear Him calling you, do not harden your heart, but
turn to God and give up your life in this world.
Then you will find fellowship and brotherhood with
other men and women who are longing for, and
developing in, this same life!
