1 Peter 1:3 teaches us that God has given us "all things that pertain to life and godliness". Do you walk around always thinking you have been given the gift of "all things"? Well, you should, and by the grace of God you are allowed to. You see, when God gives a gift to you and me, of SALVATION it is good, complete, full, pure, and entirely whole in its nature or more correctly in its Spirit. Our gift is not just FORGIVENESSES or CLEANSING or a greater understanding of His love for us. God's gift to us is a person...JESUS CHRIST THE LORD. By His grace God places us in His Kingdom of Light of the Son that is Beloved. Now you can agree with the gift being perfect because.God the Father has gifted us with God the Son ang added God the Holy Spirit that we might learn about God's Way, Truth and Life. Why has God given us lowly, unworthy humans such a complete and perfect gift? According to
1 Peter 1:4 the answer is "SO THAT YOU MIGHT PARTICIPATE IN THE DIVINE NATURE".

Therefore, supplied with this perfect start seek the face of God, for the knowledge of God so that we can worship Him in Spirit and truth...FOR THE FATHER SEEKS SUCHTO WORSHIP. By Hi grace you now live by FAITH, believing in this perfect and complete salvation which has reborn you from the flesh to the spirit and has made you one with JESUS CHRIST. We read in 1 Cor. 6:17 BUT WHOEVER IS UNITED WITH THE LORD, IS ONE WITH HIM IN THE SPIRIT. (NIV)
