I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have complete confidence that they understand God’s mysterious plan, which is Christ himself. In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I am telling you this so no one will deceive you with well-crafted arguments. For though I am far away from you, my heart is with you. And I rejoice that you are living as you should and that your faith in Christ is strong.

I must remember to live how Jesus wants me to live and understand the plan of salvation that God sent, that is Jesus.
But you must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News. The Good News has been preached all over the world, and I, Paul, have been appointed as God’s servant to proclaim it.

https://bible.com/bible/116/col.1.23.NLT
I must not drift away from the truth. It is very easy to get caught up in things that are not Biblically true because they make you feel good. I need to continue to believe the truth and stand on it, even when it's not popular or culturally "correct".
