Selah · Bible verse
2 Peter 1:8
For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In context
6and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience; and in patience godliness;
7and in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
