2 Peter 1:5,6 ~ But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, …

“hupomone” “to abide under” “not recede or flee; to persevere under misfortunes and trials to hold fast to one’s faith in Christ; to endure bravely” ~ Thayer “steadfastness, constancy … characteristic of a man who is unswerved from his deliberate purpose…” ~ Thayer

Why We Need Perseverance To achieve self-control. To keep our eyes on the goal. Because the way is difficult. We are not yet there. Persecutions will come. All encouragement to quit is of the devil.

How Perseverance Works Passive: Endurance, the ability to patiently bear trials. Active: Ability to keep moving forward. Running a Race Doing Good Bearing Fruit Trials

How We Obtain Perseverance It is something we must diligently and purposefully “add” to our character. Persevere Daily Living Follow the Right Examples Have Faith in the Reward Be Dedicated / Diligent

Heb 6:11-12 ~ And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. NKJV
