"God's divine power has given us everything that we need for life and for godliness ... his promises ... are of the highest value....

 

Because of this, make every effort to add integrity to your faith, and to integrity add knowledge; to knowledge add self-control; to self-control add endurance; to endurance add godliness; to godliness add Christian affection, and to Christian affection add love...."

2 Peter 1:3-8
