Re:Verse passage – 2 Peter 1:8-11  (day six)

“Therefore, brothers and sisters, make every effort to be sure of your calling and election.”2 Peter 1:10

“So then, my dear friends… continue working out your salvation with awe and reverence, for it is God who works in you both to will and to act for his good pleasure.”Philippians 2:12–13

It’s possible to profess faith in Jesus, belong to a church, and yet live with little concern for obeying him. Some even claim faith while choosing a willful, immoral life. This is what troubles Peter.

The faithful don’t stand still or drift—they press on. They take seriously what Jesus has secured for them. Faith is not just a set of hidden ideas; it is a living commitment to a Person. True faith shows itself in action—visible, tangible, unmistakable—just like Jesus himself.
