2Peter:1:5-10

*
even for this very reason ,
giving all diligence ,
add to your faith virtue ,
and to virtue knowledge ,
*
and to knowledge self
control ,
and to self
control endurance ,
and to endurance godliness ,
*
and to godliness brotherly kindness ,
and to brotherly kindness love .
*
For if these things are in you and abound ,
they make you neither inactive nor unfruitful in gaining the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ .
*
But he that lacketh these things is blind ,
and cannot see afar off ,
and hath forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins .
*
Wherefore the rather ,
brethren ,
give diligence to make your calling and election sure ;
for if ye do these things ,
ye will never fall .
