Philippians 4:17

17 aNot that I seek the gift, but I seek bthe fruit that increases to your credit.
Or I seek the profit that accrues to your account

Colossians 1:10

10so as dto walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, efully pleasing to him: fbearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;

Hebrews 6:6-12

6and gthen have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since hthey are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt. 7For iland that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. 8But jif it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, kand its end is to be burned.

9Though we speak in this way, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better thingsthings that belong to salvation. 10For lGod is not unjust so as to overlook myour work and the love that you have shown for his name in nserving the saints, as you still do. 11And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance oof hope until the end, 12so that you may not be sluggish, but pimitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

2 Peter 1:8

8For if these qualities
