Are You Getting Fed at Church?

11/19/2013

I’ve heard people say, so many times, “I’m just not getting fed at church 
anymore.” The saddest part is that it is usually from believers who have been 
saved and discipled for many years. I always wonder, “...why don‘t you  try feeding yourself?”

Granted, the church should always disciple new  believers, teaching them basic doctrine and equipping them to minister to  others, but there comes a time when they should be able to feed themselves AND  others.

“For when for the time YE OUGHT TO BE TEACHERS, ye have need that  one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are  become SUCH AS HAVE NEED OF MILK, and not of strong meat.” Hebrews 5:12 

How ridiculous would it be if your grown child still awaited a bottle of  milk every morning or insisted that you spoon feed him? You would honestly have  to question if there was something seriously wrong with him. Isn’t it equally  ridiculous for Christians who have been saved for many years to be unable to  feed themselves?

“Brethren, be not children in understanding:” 1 Cor.  14:20 There are so many that claim to want the Meat and the deep things  of God, but also want it spoon fed. Paul rebuked the Corinthian believers for  their spiritual immaturity. “And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto  spiritual, but as unto carnal, even
as unto babes in Christ.” I have fed you  with milk, and not with meat: for
hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither  yet now are ye able.” 1 Corinthians 3:1-2 Because they were as babes in Christ,  he COULDN’T teach them
spiritual things.

“But STRONG MEAT BELONGETH TO  THEM WHICH ARE FULL OF
AGE, even those WHO BY REASON OF USE have their senses  EXERCISED to discern both good and evil. “ Heb. 5:14 There is no class or  shortcut to wisdom. 

The deep things do not come from a simple class or  lesson, but are revealed to us through the Holy Spirit of God himself. “But God  hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things,  yea, the deep things of God.” 1 Cor. 2:10

Therefore, “STUDY to shew  thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly  dividing the word of truth.” 2 Tim. 2:15
