Carefully, boldly explain God plan of salvation is for all people

Lord has been using my time in ALPHA at MNTC, SALT as work and messages from my pastor these last few weeks. Specifically learn-from-past-and-stay-humble 1 Cor 10:12

I love using this tool: https://biblehub.com/1_corinthians/10-12.htm

  • From now on, whoever thinks that he stands, let him beware lest he fall. (Aramaic Bible in Plain English)
  • Therefore, whoever thinks he is standing securely should watch out so he doesn't fall. (International Standard Version)
  • So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall. (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
  • Even if you think you can stand up to temptation, be careful not to fall. (Contemporary English Version)

Now I write in my own words...
From now on, even if I think I can stand up to temptation because of my firm footing, Lord, let me be aware, watchful, and careful - so that I don't fall
