"He who becomes a partaker of the divine nature will be in harmony with God's great standard of righteousness, His holy law. This is the rule by which God measures the actions of men. This will be the test of character in the judgment. COL 314.2"
"(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified."
EGW's statement about God's law being the standard by which actions are measured and the test of character aligns with Romans 2:13, which emphasizes that it is the doers of the law who are justified, not merely the hearers. Both highlight the importance of obedience to the law in God's judgment.
"Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."
Both passages connect the idea of partaking in the divine nature. EGW links it to harmony with God's law, while Peter links it to escaping corruption. The core concept of sharing in God's nature is the common thread.
"“As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.” John 1:12 . This power is not in the human agent. It is the power of God. When a soul receives Christ, he receives power to live the life of Christ. COL 314.5"
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"
Ellen White directly references John 1:12 in this passage.
