2Pet 1, 10-12 Entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord
(2Pet 1, 10-12) Entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord
[10] Therefore, brothers, be all the more eager to make your calland election firm, for, in doing so, you will never stumble. [11] For, in this way, entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you. [12] Therefore, I will always remind you of these things, even though you already know them and are established in the truth you have.
(CCC 1266) The Most Holy Trinity gives the baptized sanctifying grace, the grace of justification: - enabling them to believe in God, to hope in him, and to love him through the theological virtues; - giving them the power to live and act under the prompting of the Holy Spirit through the gifts of the Holy Spirit; - allowing them to grow in goodness through the moral virtues. Thus the whole organism of the Christian's supernatural life has its roots in Baptism.
