2 Peter 1:8-15 - Make Your Calling And Election Secure

8 for these things being in you, and abounding, make you to be neither slothful, nor unfruitful, in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But he who has not these things, is blind, shutting his eyes, having become forgetful of the purification of his old sins. 10 Wherefore, the rather, brethren, earnestly endeavor to make your calling and election sure; for doing these things, you shall never fall; 11 and thus there shall be richly ministered to you, an entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

12 Wherefore, I will not neglect to put you always in remembrance of these things, although you know, and are established in the present truth. 13 Yes, I think it fit, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up, by putting you in remembrance; 14 knowing, that the putting off of this, my tabernacle, is soon to happen, even as our Lord Jesus Christ has showed me. 15 Therefore, I will carefully endeavor that you may be able, after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.
