You are an infants in Christ if you reject instructions // PROPHET LOVY L. ELIAS
The idea that if one rejects instruction, they are considered a "baby in Christ" aligns with certain biblical teachings, particularly in the context of Christian theology. This concept is derived from passages in the New Testament that emphasize the importance of spiritual growth, maturity, and the acceptance of teachings for believers.
One notable reference can be found in the Apostle Paul's letters, specifically in the First Epistle to the Corinthians. In 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 (NIV), Paul addresses the Corinthians, stating:
"Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans?"
In this passage, Paul uses the metaphor of spiritual infancy to convey the idea that the Corinthians were not yet mature in their faith because of their divisive and worldly behavior. The implication is that spiritual growth involves a willingness to receive and apply instruction, moving from basic teachings (milk) to deeper, more mature understandings (solid food).
The broader message is that a key aspect of spiritual maturity is the ability to accept and learn from instruction, allowing individuals to deepen their understanding of their faith and live by its principles. It's a call for believers to be open to guidance, correction, and growth in their Christian journey.
