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

⁸ For [if] these [things] are yours and are increasing, this does not make [you] useless or unproductive in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For [the one] for whom these [things] [are] not present is blind, being nearsighted, {having forgotten the cleansing} of his former sins. ¹⁰ Therefore, brothers, be zealous even more to make your calling and election secure, because [if you] do these [things], you will never ever stumble. ¹¹ For in this way entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly supplied for you.

¹² Therefore I intend to remind you continually concerning these [things], although [you] know [them] and are established in the truth that you have. ¹³ But I consider [it] right, for as long as I am in this habitation, to stir you up by a reminder, ¹⁴ [because I] know that the removal of my habitation is imminent, as indeed our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me. ¹⁵ And I will also make every effort [that] you are able at any time, after my departure, {to recall these things to mind}.
