3His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
4Through these He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
...
10Therefore, brothers, strive to make your calling and election sure. For if you practice these things you will never stumble,
...
19We also have the word of the prophets as confirmed beyond doubt. And you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
