Go into
perfection
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ,
let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance
from dead works, and of faith toward God, Hebrews 6:1
C

hristians are to
grow from being receivers of the word to those that exercise the power of
the word of God thereby going into perfection.
From the
scripture we have been warned severally to grow in faith and not to be babes
needing teachings every time but to also teach the word of God to those that
are yet to grow in faith and even those that are yet born again.
Our goal as a
Christian is to exercise the gospel and not always be a reader or receiver of
the word, that is the only way we can persuade those that are yet to receive
Christ. Christ had promised us the gifts of perfection to work signs and
wonders the very first time we believed in Him (Mark 16:17)’’And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name
shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;,” but
many are relax as babes.
The scripture
even affirmed that we can raise the dead if we desire to promote our faith in
Christ from the doctrine of Christ to the doctrine of baptism, raising of the
dead etc. (Hebrews 6:2) ”Of the doctrine
of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of
eternal judgment.” I pray that God through the power of the
Holy Spirit will promote us into perfection in Jesus Christ Name.
Conclusion:
The mind of God
for a believer is to grow into perfection and do greater things Christ did
while on earth. It won’t be the joy of the Lord for any believer to remain a
babe in faith.
