2 Peter 1:7-9

New Century Version

⁷ and to your service for God, add kindness for your brothers and sisters in Christ; and to this kindness, add love. ⁸ If all these things are in you and are growing, they will help you to be useful and productive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ But anyone who does not have these things cannot see clearly. He is blind and has forgotten that he was made clean from his past sins.
