2 Peter 1:8-10
New Matthew Bible
8 For if these things be among you and abound, they will make you so that you will neither be idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But he who lacks these things is blind, and gropes for the way with his hands, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Therefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure. For if you do such things, you shall never err.
