Growing Towards Spiritual Maturity

9 July 2007 – Growing Towards Spiritual Maturity

Hebrew 6:1

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.

What shall I say about today? It is about spiritual maturity growth, friends, all of you had known the meaning of “maturity”, it won’t be difficult to realize that you understand the word “spiritual” either. But what is the meaning of their combinations – Spiritual Maturity?

It is not that we know how many books are in the bible, not that we know how to memorize all the names of the books in the bible gives measure to the spiritual maturity. It is far deeper than them, it is to get beyond the basics teaching about Christ, it doesn’t mean that Christ is not important, but He is the vital character in our bible, but we still have many things to learn in the thick book right?

The theme of my church in Sandakan, is exactly the title of my essay today, truly, they are growing from now on, the story of Jesus has already reached to a level that everyone has known them, it is the time for us to study about other person, in the instance – Elijah. In the old testament there are many character we ought to learn from, there are many lessons that we can get know about, we have many truths to know about there!

As it is written in Paul’s letters to Hebrew, he told us to stop continuing the basic teachings of Christ again and again but go on growing towards spiritual maturity! It is exactly what God want us to be!

Growing towards Spiritual Maturity!
