So today, we are going to talk about growing into spiritual maturity. What is that? What is growing up spiritually? How do you know if you are making progress? How do you gauge it? You know a tape measure is a must when you need an accurate measurement. How long is that bolt that you need? About 4 inches? Maybe 5? If you need one that is exactly 4 inches, you’ll need an exact measurement. A random measurement is not effective when you need to be precise. Do you live your life randomly? Have you measured your maturity in Christ accurately? A random measurement is not good enough. The Bible teaches us that we are to measure our spiritual maturity. What are the marks of a mature Christian believer? A thankful heart, prayer, joy, fellowship, confidence in God’s salvation, partnership, growing and discerning love, and righteousness.¹ So in today’s podcast, we are going to take a look at what Paul wrote about this subject as we look at “The Truth About What It Means to Be Spiritually Mature” all on this week’s Light on Life.
