1 Cor 10:13 For no temptation has overtaken you except what is
common to man and God is faithful, who will not allow you to
be tempted beyond what you are able, but with temptation will
provide a way of escape that you may be able to endure.
1 Cor 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to
man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above
that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to
escape, that ye may be able to bear it.(KJV)
As I was reading I noticed that you are not using KJV, WHY?
Do you see any difference in these two verses?
I too thank God for His safty!
Prov 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous
runneth into it, and is safe.

It is possible, though I wonder how many attain it.
Steven:
Yes, it is possible
Eph 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the
knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the
stature of the fulness of Christ:
2 Cor 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare
ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring
themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are
not wise.
Should we compare ourselves with each other? The "ONE", is Christ and he
is our measure. Keep your eye on Jesus, Mat 6:22 The light of the body
is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be
full of light.
Your servant for Jesus sake,
