Time Well Spent with Cornelius F. Warren

Join us as Cornelius F. Warren continues teaching through 2 Peter. Tonight, we are in 1: 5-7. In our text, Peter gives us some wise counsel about growing in godliness. God wants us to grow. But you will not grow without deliberate discipline and effort. It’s interesting that Peter, a man known in the gospels for his impetuosity, here sets forth a deliberate, disciplined approach to spiritual growth. If Peter the impetuous fisherman could become a disciplined, godly man, then anyone else can do the same. He’s saying,

Because God has imparted new life and spiritual riches to us in Christ, we should be diligent to grow in godliness.
