Today’s daily reading list included 2 Peter 1:1-11. This might be considered a companion piece to the Fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 as it describes the action needed to make our faith fruitful.
| Peter’s list: Faith Virtue Knowledge Self-Control Steadfastness Godliness Brotherly Affection Love |
Paul’s list Love Peace Patience Kindness Goodness Faithfulness Gentleness Self-Control
|
Whether the list begins or ends with love doesn’t matter – We see an unbreakable chain where we can’t have one attribute without the rest. Our faith is a contract to supply each of these richly.
