Remaining Obedient Secures Eternity
For this very reason, be diligent to supply in your faith goodness, goodness in knowledge, 6 knowledge in self-control, self-control in endurance, endurance in godliness, 7 godliness in brotherly affection, and brotherly affection in love. 8 For if these things are yours and are increasing, they will keep you from being useless or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 The person who lacks these things is blind and shortsighted and has forgotten the cleansing from his past sins. 10 Therefore, brothers, be diligent to make secure your calling and election, because if you do these things you will never stumble. 11 For in this way, entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly supplied to you. 2 Peter 1:5-11
