2 Peter 1:8-10

Contemporary English Version

⁸ If you keep growing in this way, it will show that what you know about our Lord Jesus Christ has made your lives useful and meaningful. ⁹ But if you don't grow, you are like someone who is nearsighted or blind, and you have forgotten that your past sins are forgiven.

¹⁰ My friends, you must do all you can to show God has really chosen and selected you. If you keep on doing this, you won't stumble and fall.
