1 Corinthians 3:2
\nI gave you milk, not solid food,\u00a0for you were not yet ready for it.\u00a0Indeed, you are still not ready.<\/i>
\nIf bottle feeding went on permanently throughout a person\u2019s life, it would be very odd. Imagine a group of 60 year olds drinking milk from baby bottles? Normally babies, around 6 months of age, learn to eat solid foods little by little. They start with soft stuff. It is messy. They squish it with their fingers and rub it on their hair. Food gets all over the place. But they eventually learn to feed themselves.
\nWe need to do the same in discipleship. You may start with the short verses that GoTandem provides, which is all you need. Later you will want to read the whole chapter or to understand what that book of the Bible says. At some point you will want to read through the whole Bible. This is a natural part of the growing process. In GoTandem you can select the passage reference and access the whole chapter to read the verse in context. Try it when you feel a need for more and experiment with what works the best.<\/p>\n
