Through Christ, he has given us the greatest and most precious promises, so that by these things you may become sharers in the Divine Nature, fleeing from the corruption of that desire which is in the world.
But as for you, taking up every concern, minister virtue in your faith; and in virtue, knowledge;
and in knowledge, moderation; and in moderation, patience; and in patience, piety;
