2 Peter 1:3-5
Worldwide English (New Testament)
3 Christ is God and by his own power he has given us everything that we need to live and to please God. He has given this to us because we know him, and he has called us because he is great and good.
4 Because of these things, he has promised us things that are worth very much and are very great. He has promised these things to us so that by them you may become like God too. By them you will be kept free from the selfish desires of the people in the world. These desires lead to death.
5 So now you believe, try to live a good life. When you live a good life, try to learn more about God.
