Bible verse
Therefore, brothers, strive to make your calling and election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,
2 Peter 1:10 · BSB
The verses around it, from 2 Peter 1.
6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness;
7 and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.

10 Therefore, brothers, strive to make your calling and election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,
11 and you will receive a lavish reception into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
12 Therefore I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are established in the truth you now have.
13 I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of my body,
14 because I know that this tent will soon be laid aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
