On Jan. 24 th , 1864; C. H. Spurgeon β Preached on of the sermon Series β entitled: "Faith and Life β II Pet. 1v1 β 4 Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit Vol. 10; in which he asserted: "The two most important things in our holy religion are faith and life. He who shall rightly understand these two words is not far from being a master in experimental theology. Faith and life! these are vital points to a Christian. They possess so intimate a connection with each other that they are by no means to be severed; God has so joined them together, let no man seek to put them asunder. You shall never find true faith unattended by true godliness; on the other hand, you shall never discover a truly holy life which has not for its root and foundation a living faith upon the righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ. Woe unto those who seek after the one without the other! β¦" With many reminders from Apostle Peter, His primary the whole book, besides the defense against false teachers β 2v1ff and the essence of scriptures β 1v16 β 21, Peter's motivation is to exhort believers to "grow in grace and knowledge of Christ" β 3v17 β 18. And the evidence of progressive growth is grace, which confirm "God's electing grace" β 1v10 and the assured entrance into "the eternal kingdom" β 1v11; is evidently seen through "diligent commitment in embracing the spiritual virtues of verses 1v1b β 15, whose foundation is Christ and His righteousness β 1v1b β 2.
