Not Carried Away - 2 Peter 3:17-18

2 Peter 3:17-18 ESV 
You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, take care that you are not carried away with the error of lawless people and lose your own stability. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

We are stable in the truth of Christ when the seed of the word is able to take root in the soil of our earth. We are not washed away by the latest cloudburst of thinking or teaching , but hold on to our place as we stand our ground. We stand on ground made holy by the One Most Holy. 

As the roots deepen, we continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord, who is our foundation and rock, the bedrock of our belief. 

We shall not be moved.
