CRY BABY?

HEBREWS 5:12

"You are like babies who need milk and can not eat solid food."

How long have you been a Christian? Let us assume that it is for a considerable time by now. For most of us it has been years and years. For some of us we are still spiritually dull and just do not seem to listen. In fact we have been Christians for so long that we ought to be teaching others by now. Instead we still feel like we need to learn some basic things about the word of God and we need considerable teaching. If this describes you then the truth for today is of great importance to your Christian life.

If you are still weaning on the milk of the Word and you seem incapable of maturing to the solid food of the Word it is time to stop being a "cry baby". It is time to grow up and mature in the Word and in the Lord. You need to make a commitment to start getting deeper into the Word and its meaning and truly learning to the point that you could teach others about the Good News. You need to train yourself to recognize the difference between right and wrong!

Everyone who continues to feed on milk is incapable of teaching the doctrines of righteousness and needs to come into conformity with the divine will and purposes of God. It is time to become full grown believer's and Christians that are mature. You need to distinguish between good and evil and what is Godly and what is not. You need to digest all of God's word! The first step is to recognize that you are being a "cry baby" and grow up starting now. Today is the day!
