【靈糧on-line】212.照明心中的眼睛，使你們知道恩召有何等指望

J.B. Phillips New Testament version:
and this is my prayer. 
That God, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ and the all-glorious Father, 
will give you spiritual wisdom and the insight to know more of him: 
that you may receive that inner illumination of the spirit 
which will make you realise how great is the hope 
to which he is calling you—
the magnificence and splendour of the inheritance promised to Christians—
and how tremendous is the power available to us who believe in God.

2 Peter 1:3-11
³ His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, ⁴ by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire. ⁵ For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, ⁶ and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, ⁷ and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. ⁸ For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹ For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins. ¹⁰ Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and election, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall. ¹¹ For in this way there will be richly provided for youan entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
