GROW IN KNOWLEDGE
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen
2 Peter 3:18
The above text shows that growth in grace and knowledge is something we should crave as believers.
In his letter to Timothy, Paul revealed that God desires that all men would be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth:
1 Timothy 2:1-4 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
This knowledge of the truth is the knowledge of Christ. Coming to that knowledge of the truth implies spiritual growth. God wants us to grow.
