Milk and Meat

God's Balanced Diet

God tells us through His word that He expects us to grow in his way of life, to become spiritually mature.   The bible uses the concepts of milk and meat as teaching tools to help us in achieving teleios (perfection – Matt 5:48).  How does the bible describe what is the milk of the word, and what is the meat?  We’ll talk about the importance of Milk AND Meat as the balanced diet God provides to help us achieve teleios.
