2 Peter 1:5-11
The Christian is not a good person. The Christian is a vile wretch that has been by the grace of God.
Verse 8 – “Increasing” means Abounding
I am one of his elect. I am chosen of God and precious; and though the world cast me out, I fear not.
Remember who you are and you are.
OBEDIENCE EQUALS CONVICTION THAT JESUS DIED FOR OUR SINS.
Isaiah 43:25
Isaiah 44:22-23
Isaiah 53:5-11
IF THE LORD SAVED US BECAUSE OF OUR MERITS, THERE WOULD BE NO HOPE FOR GREAT SINNERS, NOR INDEED FOR ANY ONE; BUT IF HE SAVES US FOR HIS OWN GLORY, THAT HE MAY MAGNIFY HIS GRACE AND HIS MERCY AMONG ALL PEOPLE, THEN NONE NEED DESPAIR. – Charles Spurgeon
