TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
2 Peter 1:5–9 - For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, [6] and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, [7] and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. [8] For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [9] For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins. (ESV)

| 1:25.3 | And where we are in Peter's argument is he has, first of all, told us that God through |
| 1:30.8 | his divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness. |
