14 So we should no longer be children, tossed about as by waves and carried here and there by every wind of teaching+ by means of the trickery of men, by means of cunning in deceptive schemes.

8 Look out that no one takes you captive by means of the philosophy and empty deception+ according to human tradition, according to the elementary things of the world+ and not according to Christ;

2 not to be quickly shaken from your reason nor to be alarmed either by an inspired statement+ or by a spoken message or by a letter appearing to be from us, to the effect that the day of Jehovah+ is here.
