II Peter 1 (2 Peter 1:10)

📚 About this Book
✦ Chapter Overview

Peter urged believers to add virtue, knowledge, self-control, and love to their faith so as to make their calling and election sure, since these qualities keep one from being unfruitful. He affirmed that he and the other apostles were eyewitnesses of Christ's majesty and that prophecy came not by human will but by men moved by the Holy Ghost.
