2 Peter 1

Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus the Anointed, to them that have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and the Saviour Jesus the Anointed: 2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; 3 seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and piety, through the knowledge of him that called us through his own glory and worthiness; 4 through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world in desires. 5 Yea, and for this very cause, all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith worthiness; and in worthiness, knowledge; 6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, endurance; and in endurance, piety; 7 and in piety, brotherly-affection; and in brotherly-affection, love; 8 for these things, being abounding unto you, do make you neither inert nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus the Anointed— 9 for he with whom these things are not present is blind, near-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins; 10 wherefore, rather, brothers, be diligent to make steadfast your calling and election, for these things doing, ye may never stumble: 11 for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus the Anointed.
