The Bible repeatedly urges Christians to progress from the basics, ‘milk,’ to ‘solid food’ (profound life-changing truths). Moreover, God wants a mature church, not just a few, full-grown Christians. Ephesians provides the key to a mature church–it’s ‘truth-ing in love’ (Eph. 4:15 literal). ‘Truth-ing’ is not merely speaking the truth; it also includes doing, living & practicing biblical truths in our personal & community life. Guided by the Spirit of truth, let’s walk the way of truth together, step-by-step developing godly habits which will gradually change our disposition, enriching our church life until we all, as a church, arrive at maturity.

“Spiritual maturity as absolutely necessary & the lack of it as a dangerous state for the church to be in…”— Mbennah

“A Christian [could] participate…in Church activities & yet be spiritually immature…One could reflect good observable [Christian] behaviors, actively participate in church activities…& contribute financially…[to] the church without [becoming] spiritually mature.” –Emmanuel Mbennah
