II Peter

1: 4. In regeneration, the corruption is escaped.

In reformation, only the pollution is escaped.

6. Temperance is the virtue of prosperity. Temperance — moderation — is the silken string

running through the pearl chain of all the virtues.

19. The Bible does not say, as many seem to think, that prophecy is a dark place which we will do well to avoid, but rather that it is like a light shining in a dark place.

3: 18. Many Christians say, “If I can take a back-seat in heaven, I shall be satisfied.” But is God satisfied?

“Grow in grace.” The old age of grace is maturity, not decay; advance, not decline; perfection, not imbecility. We go from strength to strength. Without grace, there can be no saving knowledge.
