Make Your Calling and Election Sure
10 Therefore, brothers,[a] be more eager to make your calling and election sure for yourselves.[b] For if you do these things, you will never stumble. 11 In fact, in this way you will be richly supplied with an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
12 That is why I intend[c] always to keep reminding you of these things, even though you already know them and are established in the truth you now have.
