Renewing Our Strength in the Lord:
THE DANGER OF STAYING SPIRITUALLY YOUNG
Life B-P Church Worship Services I & II
6 April 2025
Text: Hebrews 5:11-14
I. Lack of Diligence to Understand God’s Word (v.11)
a. The problem of being dull of hearing: slothful listening
b. The problem of the heart: self-focused (Gal 5:7)
II. Lack of Proficiency in God’s Word (v. 12)
a. The problem of incompetency to teach others
b. The problem of spiritual degeneracy-can only drink “milk” but not take in “strong meat”
III. Lack of Skills in Applying God’s Word (vv. 13,14)
a. The problem of being unskillful or inexperience in the word of righteousness [completeness of knowledge (cf. Heb 1:2) leading to maturity (Col 1:28 cf 1 Cor 3:1-3)].
b. The problem of being undiscerning of good and evil (Eph 4:14)
Questions:
- Can you explain what "dull of hearing" means? What causes one to become dull of hearing?
- Is it enough to drink “milk” alone in our spiritual growth? What are the consequences of this?
- Why should we strive for spiritual maturity?
Offering for Missions
We thank God that Lifers are very generous in their offerings towards missions. In terms of support, the church gives priority to our fully-supported missionaries and we would like you to be aligned with the church’s position when giving towards missions. Rather than giving offerings that are designated to specific individuals or mission stations, you are encouraged to give to the Missions Fund and let the Missions Committee disburse them as it sees fit. Your understanding on this will facilitate an informed stewardship of resources for the Lord’s work in missions. If you wish to contribute financially to missionaries, please indicate "DO Missions" in the reference field in your e-Offering via the Life Church PayNow QR Code. May the Lord bless your cheerful giving.
