Hebrews
4:12 (NASB) says

joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of
the heart.”

GOD’S
WORD IS LIKE SOLID FOOD
WORD IS LIKE SOLID FOOD
Hebrews
5:12-14 (NASB) says
“For
though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for
someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God,
and you have come to need milk and not solid
food.
For everyone who partakes only
of
milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an
infant. But solid
food
is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained
to discern good and evil.”

James
1:23-24 (NASB) says

if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man
who looks at his natural face in a mirror;
for once
he
has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten
what kind of person he was.”

Psalm
19:7-11 (NASB) says
“The
law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of
the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord
are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring
forever; The judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous
altogether. They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine
gold; Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them your servant is warned; In keeping them there
is great reward.”
FOR
NEW CHRISTIANS
NEW CHRISTIANS
If
you are a new Christian, we recommend that you begin your reading in
the Gospel
of John
and then in the Book
of Romans.
These are the foundational books and are the easiest to read and
understand. Initially, don’t read more than one chapter each day.
Give yourself time to meditate and gain a good understanding of what
it is saying – especially to you.
