  1. Responsibilities to our fellow man

  2. Christianity – A Growth Process • When we are baptized, we are raised to walk in newness of life. • Romans 6:4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. • We are babes in Christ. • 1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. • Hebrews 5:13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.

  3. Christianity – A Growth Process • We must desire the pure milk of the word to grow. • 1 Peter 2:1-2 Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, 2 as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, • We must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord. • 2 Peter 3:18 but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.
