Colossians 1:9-10

(NLT)

So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. 

10 

Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while,

you will grow

as you learn to know God better and better

.Slide6

1 Peter 2:2-3

(NIV)

Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, 

so that by it you may grow up in your salvation

, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.Slide7

Hebrews 5:12-14

(NLT)

12 

You have been believers so long now that you ought to be teaching others. Instead, you need someone to teach you again the basic things about God’s word. 

You are like babies who need

milk

and

cannot eat solid food. 

13 

For someone who lives on milk is still an infant and doesn’t know how to do what is right. 

14 

Solid food is for those who are mature

,

who through training have the skill

to recognize the difference between right

and

wrong.Slide8

to live a spiritually disciplined life.Slide14

1 Corinthians 9:25

(NIV)

Everyone

who competes in the games goes into strict training

. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.Slide15
Slide16

Hebrews 6:1-3

(

NLT)

1

So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God. 

You don’t need further instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. 

And so, God willing, we will move forward to further understanding.Slide17
