STANDING ON THE PROMISES

2 Peter 1:1-21

Peter describes the sustaining power of God's promises and

His desire for us to grow in godliness and add to our faith.

1.  God's Power and Promises Provide All We Need

     (2 Peter 1:1-4)

     Our righteousness is from God through Jesus Christ, and

     He gives us everyting we need for life and godliness.

 
2.  God's Power and Promises Enable Us to Grow in Godly Character

     (2 Peter 1:5-11)

     God is the source of our godliness, but we still make the

     effort to grow in godliness.

 
3.  We Have a Sure and Certain Word from God

     (2 Peter 1:12-21)

     Our Father has provided a key component in living out our faith

     in Christ: the written Word of God.
