2 Peter 1:5

5 This is why you must make every effort to add moral excellence to your faith; and to moral excellence, knowledge;

2 Peter 1:5 In-Context

3 By his divine power the Lord has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of the one who called us by his own honor and glory.
4 Through his honor and glory he has given us his precious and wonderful promises, that you may share the divine nature and escape from the world's immorality that sinful craving produces.
5 This is why you must make every effort to add moral excellence to your faith; and to moral excellence, knowledge;
6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, endurance; and to endurance, godliness;
7 and to godliness, affection for others; and to affection for others, love.
