2 Corinthians 10:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage battle (A)according to the flesh, 4 for the (B)weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but [a]divinely powerful (C)for the destruction of fortresses. 5 We are destroying arguments and all (D)arrogance raised against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the (E)obedience of Christ,

New American Standard Bible
The Christian’s Walk
17 (A)So I say this, and affirm in the Lord, (B)that you are to no longer walk just as the [a]Gentiles also walk, in the (C)futility of their minds, 18 being (D)darkened in their understanding, [b](E)excluded from the life of God because of the (F)ignorance that is in them, because of the (G)hardness of their heart; 19 and they, having (H)become callous, (I)have given themselves up to (J)indecent behavior [c]for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness. 20 But you did not (K)learn Christ in this way, 21 if indeed you (L)have heard Him and have (M)been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, 22 that, in reference to your former way of life, you are to (N)rid yourselves of the (O)old [d]self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the (P)lusts of deceit, 23 and that you are to be (Q)renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to (R)put on the (S)new [e]self, which [f](T)in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.

14 (A)Therefore, (B)beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be (C)found (D)spotless and blameless by Him, at peace, 15 and regard the (E)patience of our Lord as salvation; just as also (F)our beloved brother Paul, (G)according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, 16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of (H)these things, (I)in which there are some things that are hard to understand, which the untaught and (J)unstable distort, as they do also (K)the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. 17 You therefore, (L)beloved, knowing this beforehand, (M)be on your guard so that you are not carried away by (N)the error of [a](O)unscrupulous people and (P)lose your own [b]firm commitment, 18 but grow in the grace and (Q)knowledge of our (R)Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
