in Christ, SHOULD desire the sincere milk of the Word, that it may grow thereby.
A newborn natural babe, should desire mother's milk. Today the makers of
formula make a substitute for mother's milk. Nothing replaces the way GOD
made for babies, naturally or spiritually, to be nourished.
Some babies may have been fed "junk" food and drink all their lives. I've
seen young mothers put soft drinks, etc. in their infants bottles. Those
babies will desire "junk" food and drink, unless someone introduces them to
something more nourishing. I hear children say, "I don't like milk". WHY do they
not like millk! We eleven siblings were "fed the sincere milk of the Word" from
a child. Most, if not all of us, LIKE MILK! But we like MEAT TOO, since we are
now all adults.
1Cor.13:11
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought
as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
Jesus told his disciples, "The words I speak unto you, they are spirit and
they are life." Yet, there were those who got so angry at his words, they
wanted to kill him!
