Daily Reading for Personal Growth, 40 Days with God
5 [a]Therefore give even all diligence thereunto: [b]join moreover virtue with your faith: and with virtue, knowledge:
6 [c]And with knowledge, temperance: and with temperance, patience: and with patience, godliness:
7 And with godliness, brotherly kindness: and with brotherly kindness, love.
8 [d]For if these things be among you, and abound, they will make you that ye neither shall be idle, nor unfruitful in the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ:
9 For he that hath not these things, is blind, and [e]cannot see far off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 [f]Wherefore, brethren, give rather diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.
11 For by this means an entering shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
