    This document discusses how spiritual growth and development can be understood through basic arithmetic operations: 1) Addition refers to continuously adding virtues to one's faith, as described in 2 Peter 1:5-7. 2) Subtraction involves removing sin and anything hindering spiritual growth, as 1 Peter 2:1-2 indicates. 3) Multiplication is about how spiritual blessings and righteousness can multiply through God's provision, as seen in 2 Peter 1:2 and 2 Corinthians 9:10. 4) Division refers to generously sharing what one has with others, as the believers did in Acts 4:32.

    Addition: 2 Peter 1: 5-7 “ For


    this very reason, make every effort

    pressures. The Christian with a firm and growing
    faith will still have problems but will also have the
    inner strength to handle them.

    hurled upon us.

    become shining reflections of what God can do
