Assurance Is A Central Christian Goal
- Assurance of salvation is a primary biblical concern and should be enjoyed by every true Christian.
- Knowing Scripture, sanctification, and salvation equips believers against false teachers.
Pursue Seven Virtues Actively
- Diligently pursue seven virtues listed in 2 Peter 1:5–7 to strengthen assurance.
- Apply effort to add moral excellence, knowledge, self-control, endurance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love.
Moral Excellence Means Active Christlikeness
- Moral excellence (arete) means practical, demonstrated heroism in Christlikeness, not mere attitude.
- Paul models this pursuit when he says, "I press toward the mark" to become like Christ.
