The 'divine nature of Jesus' is the belief that he is part of the Holy Trinity and the Son of God.
Answer:The term "Divine Nature" is used only once in the Bible by Peter:
"His Divine Power has given us everything we need for Life and Godliness 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 and escape the corruption of the world..." (II Peter 1:3-4 NIV)
In the human birth process... the father's seed, when conceived, imparts to his children the "
human nature" -- the temporary corrupt existence of "perishable flesh."
In the same manner, in the "spiritual birth process"... the Father's Seed, the Truth of His Word through the Holy Spirit, imparts His "Divine Nature" to His Children with the "imperishable" Life Force of God.
"Praise be to
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In His great Mercy
He has given us new birth into a Living Hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and
into an inheritance that can never perish,
spoil or
fade -- kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's Power
until the coming salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time." (I Peter 1:3-5 NIV)
"
For you have been born again,
not of perishable seed,
but of imperishable, through the Living and Enduring Word of God.
"For, 'All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but
the Word of the Lord stands forever.' And this is the Word that was preached to you." (I Peter 1:23-25 NIV)
Human fathers pass their "human nature" [corruptibility and death] on the their children.
The Father in heaven imparts His "Divine Nature" [immortality] on to His.
