NOT INACTIVE AND NOT UNFRUITFUL

2 Peter 1:8

For these things existing in you and greatly abounding cause you to be not inactive and not unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Master Jesus Anointed One.

(1:8, my translation)

When it comes down to it,
it's about who you know.
God's gracious nepotism,
yes, indeed.

Life without seeds of death
is knowing him.
Life of doing and being
is knowing him.

Knowing him,
the source.
Doing and being his ways,
the conduit.
Doing and being the knowledge of him,
the result.

Our whole selves
to his whole self:
this is life.
