John
6:26 (ESV) 26 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you are
seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the
loaves. Hebrews 5:12-13 (ESV) 12 For though by this time you ought to be
teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the
oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, 13 for everyone who lives on
milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. 1 Peter
3:18 (ESV) 18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the
unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh
but made alive in the spirit, Acts 2:37 (ESV) 37 Now when they heard this
they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles,
“Brothers, what shall we do?” Colossians 3:9-10 (ESV) 9 Do not lie to one
another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and
have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image
of its creator. Hebrews 12:6-7 (ESV) 6 For the Lord disciplines the one he
loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.” 7 It is for discipline that
you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom
his father does not discipline? Ephesians 4:11-12 (ESV) 11 And he gave the
apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, 12 to
equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of
Christ, Hebrews 3:11 (ESV) 11 As I swore in my wrath, ‘They shall not enter
my rest.’ ” |
