2 Peter 1:1

Greeting the Faithful

1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and ^aapostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have¹ obtained ^blike precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

2 ^aGrace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

3 as His ^adivine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him ^bwho called us by glory and virtue,

4 ^aby which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be ^bpartakers of the divine nature, having escaped the¹ corruption that is in the world through lust.

II Peter 1:1-10

We have been called by glory and virtue. Can we consider what Peter lists here as building blocks, a materials list? Add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, and on and on the list goes. And if we do these things, we will never stumble. "Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ our Lord, as His divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness." All things that pertain to life and true life and godliness.
