For if these
things be in you, and abound,
they
make you that ye shall neither be barren
nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ."
"And
beside this, giving all diligence, add to
your faith virtue; and to virtue
knowledge; [5] And to knowledge
temperance; and to temperance patience;
and to patience godliness; [6] And to
godliness brotherly kindness; and to
brotherly kindness charity. [7]
2 Peter 1:5-7

The books of reference used for
this study of the book of II Peter were the
Bible, King James Version, called "The
Companion Bible", Publisher Kregel; Strong's
Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, numbered to
the Hebrew, Chaldee, and Greek, and English,
coded to the Strong's Concordance numbers.
Other sources were also used besides these
references, but they were the major source of the
study. Of course without the leading by the Holy
Spirit, there would be no understanding of the
truths, for all the truth of the Scriptures are
revealed to us by God's Spirit.
John 15:26
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send
unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of
truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall
testify of me:
John 16:13-14
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of
truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever
he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will
shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for
he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto
you.
