For thus an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be richly provided for you.

From Simeon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ, have been granted a faith just as precious as ours.

I want you to recall both the predictions foretold by the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the honor both now and on that eternal day.

For if after they have escaped the filthy things of the world through the rich knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they again get entangled in them and succumb to them, their last state has become worse for them than their first.
