Last week I shared something the Lord put in my heart. It was a challenge that left me standing in wonder.
I read Hebrews 5:11 – 14 and saw a conflict between needing milk and moving on to solid food. The author of Hebrews (maybe Apollos) said to his audience that they needed milk and he couldn’t continue to teach them solid food. He encouraged them to move onto solid food.
What is solid food?!!?!??!?!!?! (hint… this is an opportunity for you to think and chime in and comment via the blog)…..
I saw a clear list of what is considered milk… Chapter 6 v.1 – 2.
- repentance from dead works
- faith toward God (trust) 100%
- instruction about washings
- laying on of hands
- resurrection of the dead
- eternal judgement

Not sure where the list ends here, but i was left to ponder what solid food might look like.
If laying on of hands is about healing and prayer and passing the anointing and blessing of God, we should be passed that! It’s milk! Of course all in the context of keeping in step with the leading of the Spirit.
There are teachings that God reveals to his children that go beyond basic theology. They lead into the gifts of the Holy Spirit and teachings about his plan for the end times. They involve authority and miracles performed in the acts of the love of God through us, his children.
Oh, the riches that await those who walk with God.
So, what do you think solid food is? hmmm….. good question…..
Till Sunday!

Thanks for sharing, Mark! Good stuff… for we should always strive to become more mature in our faith.
To me, it’s actually very simple. When a baby is born, she needs certain things to grow… food, clothing, shelter, lots of love, etc. Similarly, when someone is spiritually born again, he needs certain things to grow.
First, he needs to know what it’s all about. Without knowledge, he won’t get very far. Knowledge alone is not enough, however. There must also be an essential “internalization” of this knowledge… the kind that produces faith… and results in a reformed heart, transformed life, denial of self.
And how does that come about? Only by the Holy Spirit.
Only by the Holy Spirit, we can truly understand what the Word of God says. Only by the Holy Spirit, can that Word take root in our hearts and produce fruits. Only by the Spirit, can we truly know God and fellowship with him.
To be mature is to know him… to really KNOW him. To me, this is the diving line between those who require milk vs. those who can enjoy solid food.
Amen!
