Bible Question: Mt4:1 I understand wilderness is a time without any fellowship how do we grow |
Bible Answer: Greetings, you are not too clear as to your question "how do we grow" so I'll give what I have on growth. The Word of God is necessary for the growth of the Christian. We should all desire the pure milk of the Word, even though Paul rebukes the Corinthians for being able to only receive milk (1Cor. 3:1-2), the Christian should never tire of the simple truths of the gospel simply presented. "To drink the milk of the word is to taste again and again what He is like, for in hearing of the Lord's Words believers experience the joy of personal fellowship with the Lord himself". However, to grow by the word, we must receive it with a cerain attitude of heart - laying aside all malice, guile, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking - a humble, honest, heart, one willing to do what the Word of God says. God bless you as you grow. |
