2 Peter 1:8

Growth In The Faith

⁷ And love of the brothers to fear of God, and to love of the brothers, love itself. ⁸ For if you have these things in good measure, they will make you fertile and full of fruit in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For the man who has not these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having no memory of how he was made clean from his old sins.
