I agree with you, but the bolded portion reminds me more of Colossians 2:21, which, incidentally, tastes like gerber to me.

I guess the important thing is...what does the Bible say is "milk"? Your personal tastes notwithstanding.

Re: Milk or Meat Sermons?

This is a really good "Meat" sermon (skip the Trinitarian perspective and fast forward to the "meat" as he discusses idols... wow)

Same here. I'd say 35 years for me...and I'm not much older than that. But if it's Chocolate Milk? Now, that's a different story!

I'm pretty health-conscious and pretty much a stick, but I'll confess to having a serious problem with chocolate milk drinking. I'm considering getting into a group for it!

Sorry...now I'm hijacking the thread that you started so as not to hijack another thread!

It sounds more to me like......1 Cor 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

I'm only 10 minutes in, but so far it's GREAT. I like Mark Driscoll, anyway. He has some great clips on YT.
