Ephesians 4:14
“Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by
the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of
teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in
their deceitful scheming.
Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things
grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.
From him the whole body, joined and held together by
every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in
love, as each part does its work.”
