drink in

Therefore let us go on toward perfection, leaving behind the basic teaching about Christ, and not laying again the foundation: repentance from dead works and faith toward God, instruction about baptisms, laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And we will do this, if God permits. For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, since on their own they are crucifying again the Son of God and are holding him up to contempt. Ground that drinks up the rain falling on it repeatedly, and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is worthless and on the verge of being cursed; its end is to be burned over. (Hebrews 6:1-8, NRSV)

We can not relay the foundation once it has been laid… And we have this foundation. Now we must drink in the falling rain to grow in maturity…

You see just like the ground drinks in the rain water and the nutrients feed to it, and then it produces a crop useful for those who tend it that is how we must be.

We must drink in the water that Jesus gives, that leads to never thirsting again. We must take in the nutrients of a life lived in the light of God and soaking in the nutrients of His body all around us.

Mature in your christian life and move on from the baby food! God needs you to produce for the kingdom!
