As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness ,
are given us ,
through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue .

By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises :
that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature :
flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world .

And you ,
employing all care ,
minister in your faith ,
virtue ;
and in virtue ,
knowledge ;

And in knowledge ,
abstinence ;
and in abstinence ,
patience ;
and in patience ,
godliness ;

2Peter:1:7 @
And in godliness ,
love of brotherhood ;
and in love of brotherhood ,
charity .

For if these things be with you and abound ,
they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ .

is blind ,
and groping ,
having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins .

Wherefore ,
brethren ,
labour the more ,
that by good works you may make sure your calling and election .
For doing these things ,
you shall not sin at any time .
