'Acknowledging the Divine Benefactor' is a socio-rhetorical
interpretation of the Second Letter of Peter. Using multiple
interpretive perspectives and emphasising the pictorial dimensions
of 2 Peter, Terrance Callan shows that the letter makes the
following argument: since Jesus Christ has given his followers
benefits, including the promise of sharing in divine nature, they
need to make a proper return for these benefits by living
virtuously; and this in turn will enable them to receive the
fulfilment of the promise. The occasion of the letter is that
Peter's death is near. He writes so the addressees can remember his
teaching after his death. The author expounds this teaching because
some people do not await the future fulfilment of Christ's promises
and so do not emphasise the need for virtuous living.
