Ephesians 4:12-14
New Century Version
12 Christ gave those gifts to prepare God’s holy people for the work of serving, to make the body of Christ stronger. 13 This work must continue until we are all joined together in the same faith and in the same knowledge of the Son of God. We must become like a mature person, growing until we become like Christ and have his perfection.
14 Then we will no longer be babies. We will not be tossed about like a ship that the waves carry one way and then another. We will not be influenced by every new teaching we hear from people who are trying to fool us. They make plans and try any kind of trick to fool people into following the wrong path.

Ephesians 4:12-14
New International Version
12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ(A) may be built up(B) 13 until we all reach unity(C) in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God(D) and become mature,(E) attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.(F)
14 Then we will no longer be infants,(G) tossed back and forth by the waves,(H) and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.(I)
