John 6:27

27 ^aDo not work for the food that perishes, but for ^bthe food that endures to eternal life, which ^cthe Son of Man will give to you. For on ^dhim God the Father has ^eset his seal.”

Hebrews 6:11-12

11 And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance ^fof hope until the end, 12 so that you may not be sluggish, but ^gimitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

2 Peter 1:5-10

5 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith ^hwith virtue, ^{▼▼Or excellence; twice in this verse} and virtue ^jwith knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control ^kwith steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, 7 and godliness ^lwith brotherly affection, and brotherly affection ^mwith love. 8 For if these qualities ^{▼▼Greek these things; also verses 9, 10, 12} are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or ^ounfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he ^pis blind, having forgotten that he was ^qcleansed from his former sins. 10 Therefore, brothers, ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters. The plural Greek word adelphoi (translated “brothers”) refers to siblings in a family. In New Testament usage, depending on the context, adelphoi may refer either to men or to both men and women who are siblings (brothers and sisters) in God’s family, the church} be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and ^selection, for if you practice these qualities ^tyou will never fall.
