2 Peter 1:8-11

8for these things existing and abounding in you make [you] to be neither idle nor unfruitful as regards the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;

9for he with whom these things are not present is blind, short-sighted, and has forgotten the purging of his former sins.

10Wherefore the rather, brethren, use diligence to make your calling and election sure, for doing these things ye will never fall;

11for thus shall the entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ be richly furnished unto you.
