Do we try to do meaty things before we have sufficient milk in our body?
Heb 5:12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Heb 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilfull in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Heb 5:14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
I was thinking the other day that milk grows bones and meat grows muscles.
If you try to go to meat without proper milk you would strain your bones like body builders that start to young.
When a body builder starts off too young he strains his bones and ends up running into problems later on with arthritis and what not.
If we do not get proper milk to lay our foundation we should not try to do meaty things! We will overbear our self and it would be hard to do things for God. Do you understand foundational things about your faith in Jesus?
Check this if you want to make sure.

So I encourage people ensure that a proper foundation (milk) is laid. Then gradually go on to meat.
