Milk versus Meat – Hebrews 5:12-14

Maturity versus immaturity. Milk versus meat. It’s our choice when we’re ready.

References to Hebrews 5:12 (1 Corinthians 3;2 and 1 Peter 2:2)

I have fed you milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
~ 1 Corinthians 3:2 ~

as newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the world that ye may grow thereby:
~ 1 Peter 2:2 ~

References to Hebrews 5:13 (1 Corinthians 14:20; Ephesians 4:14)

Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
~ 1 Corinthians 14:20 ~

that we hence forth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
~ Ephesians 4:14 ~

References to Hebrews 5:14 (Romans 16:19; 1 Corinthians 2:6)
~ Romans 16:19 ~

Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
~ 1 Corinthians 2:6 ~

Abundant blessings, my friends, because the just shall live by faith. Praise The Lord.

As always, I welcome your thoughts. (smile)
