We've been studying an incredible paragraph of Scripture, but the best is just ahead--the seven blessings God gives to those who diligently add to their faith virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love. The Lord lists seven great benefits that come into our lives as we increasingly develop this kind of Christlike and Christ-honoring life. Some of these blessings are available now, in this life; others are in the future, when we receive a rich welcome into God's eternal inheritance for us.
