Baby Christians

Scripture

Hebrews 5

11 There is much more we would like to say about this, but it is difficult to explain, especially since you are spiritually dull and don’t seem to listen. 12 You have been believers so long now that you ought to be teaching others. Instead, you need someone to teach you again the basic things about God’s word. You are like babies who need milk and cannot eat solid food. 13 For someone who lives on milk is still an infant and doesn’t know how to do what is right. 14 Solid food is for those who are mature, who through training have the skill to recognize the difference between right and wrong.

Observation

Baby Christians are not babies because they have just been born again, no, you can be a baby Christian because you have not grown like you should. These Christians that the writer of Hebrews is talking to have been in the faith a long time but have not grown spiritually like they should have grown. Are you growing like you should be growing? Are you helping someone else grow in the faith? If your answer to those questions is no then my question to you is why not? Why don’t you help someone else grow in his or her faith? Why not? You can do it. You just need to be a little further along the road, a little ahead of them to be able to lead them. Why don’t you find someone today that needs some help and help him or her?

Application

I will look for someone that wants to grow and help them in their Christian walk.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me find someone that needs to be encouraged in their faith and show me how to help them.
