Rock�s Second Letter, Chapter 1
{1:1} Shim`on Rock, a servant and apostle of Yeshua the Messiah, to
those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the
righteousness of our God and Savior, Yeshua the Messiah: {1:2} Grace
to you and shalom be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Yeshua
our Lord, {1:3} seeing that his divine power has granted to us all
things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of
him who called us by his own glory and virtue; {1:4} whereby he has
granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that
through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having
escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust. {1:5} Yes,
and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your
faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
{1:6} and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience;
and in patience godliness; {1:7} and in godliness brotherly affection;
and in brotherly affection, love. {1:8} For if these things are yours
and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the
knowledge of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. {1:9} For he who lacks these
things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the
cleansing from his old sins. {1:10} Therefore, brothers, be more
diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these
things, you will never stumble. {1:11} For thus will be richly
supplied to you the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and
Savior, Yeshua the Messiah.
{1:12} Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these
things, though you know them, and are established in the present
truth. {1:13} I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir
you up by reminding you; {1:14} knowing that the putting off of my
tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Yeshua the Messiah made clear to
me. {1:15} Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able
to remember these things even after my departure. {1:16} For we did
not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the
power and coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, but we were
eyewitnesses of his majesty. {1:17} For he received from God the
Father honor and glory, when the voice came to him from the Majestic
Glory, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." {1:18}
This voice we heard come out of heaven when we were with him in the
holy mountain.
{1:19} We have the more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well
that you take heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the
day dawns, and the day star arises in your hearts: {1:20} knowing this
first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
{1:21} For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of
God spoke, being moved by the [1>]Ruach HaKodesh[<1].
