2 Peter 1:9-11

New Century Version

⁹ But anyone who does not have these things cannot see clearly. He is blind and has forgotten that he was made clean from his past sins.

¹⁰ My brothers and sisters, try hard to be certain that you really are called and chosen by God. If you do all these things, you will never fall. ¹¹ And you will be given a very great welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
