beloved, knowing this beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unprincipled men and fall from your own steadfastness, but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.”
Maturing In Christ
Ephesians 4:14-16Christ gave gifts to the church to
mature usNo longer to be childrenUntil we become, “…a mature man,
to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ….we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ….”

putting aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander, like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation, if you have tasted the kindness of the Lord.”

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
