1 Please put up with a little of my foolishness.
2 I am as concerned about you as God is. You were like a virgin bride I had chosen only for Christ.
3 But now I fear that you will be tricked, just as Eve was tricked by that lying snake. I am afraid that you might stop thinking about Christ in an honest and sincere way.
4 We told you about Jesus, and you received the Holy Spirit and accepted our message. But you let some people tell you about another Jesus. Now you are ready to receive another spirit and accept a different message.
5 I think I am as good as any of those super apostles.
