Confirming One’s Calling and Election

3His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.G5613G846G2304G1411G1433G2254G3956G4314G2222G2532G2150G1223G1922G2564G2248G1223G1391G2532G703 4Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.G1223G3739G1433G2254G3176G2532G5093G1862G2443G1223G5130G1096G2844G2304G5449G668G5356G1722G2889G1722G1939 5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge;G2532G1161G846G5124G3923G3956G4710G2023G1722G5216G4102G703G1161G1722G703G1108 6and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness;G1161G1722G1108G1466G1161G1722G1466G5281G1161G1722G5281G2150 7and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.G1161G1722G2150G5360G1161G1722G5360G26 8For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.G1063G5023G5225G5213G2532G4121G2525G3756G692G3761G175G1519G1922G2257G2962G2424G5547 9But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins.G1063G3739G3361G3918G5023G2076G5185G3467G3024G2983G2512G846G3819G266 10Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall,G1352G3123G80G4704G4160G5216G2821G2532G1589G949G1063G4160G5023G4218G4417G3364G4218G4417 11and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.G1063G3779G1529G2023G5213G4146G1519G166G932G2257G2962G2532G4990G2424G5547

Prophecy of Scripture

12So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.G1352G272G3756G272G5279G5209G104G5279G4012G5130G2539G1492G2532G4741G1722G3918G225 13I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of this body,G1161G2233G1342G1909G3745G1510G1722G5129G4638G1326G5209G1326G1722G5280 14because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.G1492G3754G5031G2076G595G3450G4638G2532G2531G2257G2962G2424G5547G1213G3427 15And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these things.G1161G2532G4704G5209G2192G3326G1699G1841G4160G5130G1539G3420 16We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.G1063G1811G3756G1811G4679G3454G1107G5213G1411G2532G3952G2257G2962G2424G5547G235G1096G2030G1565G3168 17For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."G1063G2983G3844G2316G3962G5092G2532G1391G5342G5107G5456G846G5259G3169G1391G3778G2076G3450G27G5207G1519G3739G1473G2106 18We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.G2532G5026G5456G5342G1537G3772G2249G191G5607G4862G846G1722G40G3735 19And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.G2192G2532G949G3056G4397G3739G4160G2573G4337G5613G3088G5316G1722G850G5117G2193G3739G2250G1306G2532G5459G393G1722G5216G2588 20Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation.G1097G5124G4412G3754G3756G3956G4394G1124G1096G2398G1955 21For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.G1063G4394G5342G3756G4218G2307G444G235G40G444G2316G2980G5342G5259G40G4151
