Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:1 - Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and the Saviour Jesus Christ:
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:2 - Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:3 - seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:4 - whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:5 - Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in your virtue knowledge;
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:6 - and in your knowledge self-control; and in your self-control patience; and in your patience godliness;
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:7 - and in your godliness brotherly kindness; and in your brotherly kindness love.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:8 - For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:9 - For he that lacketh these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:10 - Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble:
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:11 - for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:12 - Wherefore I shall be ready always to put you in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the truth which is with you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:13 - And I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:14 - knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle cometh swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ signified unto me.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:15 - Yea, I will give diligence that at every time ye may be able after my decease to call these things to remembrance.

Eyewitnesses

(Mat 17:5; Mar 9:7; Luk 9:35 )
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:16 - For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:17 - For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there was borne such a voice to him by the Majestic Glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased:
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:18 - and this voice we ourselves heard borne out of heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:19 - And we have the word of prophecy made more sure; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts:
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:20 - knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:21 - For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
