2 Peter 3:17-18 Part 1 of 2

Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

Since you have been forewarned, be on your guard

and fall from your secure position
