As grace believers, what is our primary objective? (Part 2)
Start this series of posts with: Part 1
In the first part of this series, I motivated
the fact that the single most important thing to do, after getting saved, is to
spend time in the Word of God and gain the knowledge of the Word rightly divided.
In upcoming parts, I will also deal with points instructing why this is
important, what happens when we do, and God’s will and purpose for us in doing this.
In this post I want to focus on what is
milk and what is meat. As previously mentioned, a babe in Christ cannot be fed
meat. So, it becomes really important to know what milk is in the Word, and
where we will find the solid food. In this regard, we will find that God’s Word
is so perfectly designed. As with the nine Hebrew epistles, Hebrews to
Revelation, Paul’s nine church epistles to the Gentiles are also arranged in a
form of curriculum, starting with Romans to 2-Thessalonians. It shouldn’t be surprising
to note that these Gentile letters, for us in this dispensation of grace, start
with a letter called Romans and the Jewish letters, for the Jewish believers in
the tribulation, start with a letter called Hebrews. God could not have made
this distinction clearer.
