Thirty Years a Babe in Christ is Nothing to be Proud of.

Yes, First Peter 2: 2 says that as newborn babes desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby. The milk is for the babe, but don't stay a baby.

Babies grow up and get strong and need solid food for their work. "Solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil" (Hebrews 5: 14). If you partake only of milk, you are unskilled in the word of righteousness (v. 13). You are a babe if you still think of the word in terms of milk--you are unskilled in it.

"which things are symbolic" (Galatians 4: 22-24). These are symbolic, allegorical, "milk." What they are allegorical OF, that is the "solid food."

There really is some supra-spiritual No-thing that is "The Ineffable," but we haven't a clue as to what the source of spirit is. We can 'get it' that It imagines, and that Its imagining is our life and our savior. The Imagining of the Ineffable we know as God, Jehovah, Jesus, Christ, Adam, Eve, the Rib, the Shining One to Whom Adam bowed his knee, etc., etc. . . . and ourselves. It is everyone, and everyone It.

Do learn the word as pure milk, sure, but don't forget it is symbolic and for you as a babe. Remember that Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God within you; it is your imagination. That is God. Learn the history in the Bible in order to sort through and wrestle through the principles that are therein. It is your destiny to fulfill them, that God be All-In-All.
