Bible Comments

We Are Thus To Cultivate All That Is Good and Pure In Life (2 Peter 1:5-8).

Because of our participation in His divine nature, we are therefore to become an example of all that is good and pure.

2 Peter 1:5-8

5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barrenc nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
