In the context of the Bible, it often refers to sharing in spiritual blessings, sufferings, or the divine nature. The concept of partaking is significant in understanding the communal and participatory aspects of the Christian faith.<br><br><b>Biblical Usage:</b><br><br>1. <b>Partaking in the Divine Nature:</b><br> The idea of believers partaking in the divine nature is a profound theological concept found in the New Testament. In <a href="/2_peter/1-4.htm">2 Peter 1:4</a> , it is written, "Through these He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires." This passage highlights the transformative power of God's promises, enabling believers to share in His divine nature and moral excellence.<br><br>2. <b>Partaking in Sufferings:</b><br> The New Testament also speaks of partaking in the sufferings of Christ as a means of spiritual growth and identification with Him. In <a href="/1_peter/4-13.htm">1 Peter 4:13</a> , it states, "But rejoice that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed at the revelation of His glory." Here, partaking in Christ's sufferings is presented as a cause for rejoicing, as it leads to a deeper fellowship with Him and future glory.<br><br>3. <b>Partaking in the Body and Blood of Christ:</b><br> The Lord's Supper, or Communion, is a central rite in Christianity where believers partake of the bread and wine, symbolizing the body and blood of Christ. In <a href="/1_corinthians/10-16.htm">1 Corinthians 10:16</a> , Paul writes, "Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?" This act of partaking signifies unity with Christ and the church, as well as a remembrance of His sacrificial death.<br><br>4. <b>Partaking in Spiritual Blessings:</b><br> Believers are also described as partakers of spiritual blessings in Christ. <a href="/ephesians/3-6.htm">Ephesians 3:6</a> reveals, "This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are fellow heirs, fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus." This emphasizes the inclusivity of the gospel, where both Jews and Gentiles share equally in the promises and blessings of God.<br><br>5. <b>Partaking in Holiness:</b><br> The process of sanctification involves partaking in God's holiness. <a href="/hebrews/12-10.htm">Hebrews 12:10</a> explains, "They disciplined us for a short time as they thought best, but God disciplines us for our good, so that we may share in His holiness." This discipline is a form of divine love, intended to mold believers into the likeness of God's holy character.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br><br>The concept of partaking in the Bible underscores the relational and communal aspects of the Christian faith. It reflects the believer's union with Christ, participation in His sufferings and glory, and the shared life within the body of Christ. Partaking is both a present reality and a future hope, as believers experience the blessings of salvation now and anticipate the fullness of these blessings in eternity.<a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/augustine/writings_in_connection_with_the_manichaean_controversy_/faustus_argues_that_if_the.htm"><span class="l">Faustus Argues that if the Apostles Born under the Old Covenant <b>...</b></span></a> <br><b>...</b> And if some of the branches are broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, were<br> grafted in among them, and with them <b>partakest</b> of the root and fatness of <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../faustus argues that if the.htm</font><p><a href="/library/chrysostom/homilies_on_the_epistles_of_paul_to_the_corinthians/homily_xxv_1_cor_x.htm"><span class="l">1 Cor. x. 25</span></a> <br><b>...</b> discrimination?"
