2 Peter 1: 5-11
(Wycliffe Bible)
And bringe ye in alle bisynesse, and mynystre ye in youre feith vertu,
and `in vertu kunnyng;
6 in kunnyng abstinence, in abstynence pacience, in pacience pitee;
7 in pitee, love of britherhod, and in loue of britherhod charite.
8 For if these ben with you, and ouercomen, thei schulen not make you voide, nethir with out fruyt, in the knowyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist.
9 But to whom these ben not redi, he is blynd, and gropith with his hoond, and foryetith the purgyng of his elde trespassis.
10 Wherfor, britheren, be ye more bisi, that by goode werkis ye make youre clepyng and chesyng certeyn;
11 for ye doynge these thingis schulen not do synne ony tyme. For thus the entryng in to euerlastynge kyngdom of oure Lord and sauyour Jhesu Crist, schal be mynystrid to you plenteuousli.
translation: And bring ye in all business, and ministry, ye in your faith virtue, and in virtue keeping; and keeping abstinence, in abstinence patience, in patience pity; in pity, love pf brotherhood, and in love of brotherhood charity. For if these be with you, and overcome, they shall bot make you void, neither without fruit, in the Lord Jesus Christ. Vut to whom these be not ready, he is blind, and has forgotten the cleansing from his past sins (trespasses). Wherefore, brethren, be more diligent, that by good works you make your calling and election certain, for in doing these things do not sin anytime. For this, the entering in to the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, shall be ministered to you plenteous.
summary:
2 Peter 1:5-11 is about the importance of building and strengthening one’s faith through virtues such as goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, mutual affection, and love, in order to confirm one’s calling and election as a believer in Christ.

The Call to Growth
Peter lists qualities to add to our faith: goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love. These qualities are essential for spiritual growth.
Fruitfulness and Assurance
For if you possess these qualities and continue to grow in them, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Growth in these virtues leads to a fruitful Christian life.
2 Peter 1 stands as a testament to the transformative power of faith in Christ, highlighting the path towards moral excellence and spiritual growth. This chapter not only solidifies the certainty of Christ’s return, but also emphasizes the inherent validity of the divine prophecy. Penned by Simon Peter, a disciple of Jesus, it offers a profound exploration of the divine promises, the attributes of a virtuous Christian life, and the role of prophecy in the faith journey.
Pursue Knowledge of God
Make it a daily priority to grow in your understanding of God through prayer, Bible study, and meditation on His Word.
Cultivate Virtues
Actively work on developing the qualities listed in verses 5-7. Reflect on which areas need more attention in your life.
Evaluate Your Fruitfulness
Regularly assess your spiritual growth and effectiveness in serving God and others.
Embrace God’s Promises
Hold onto God’s promises as a source of strength and encouragement in your walk with Him.
