                                                                                                      Got Milk?

                                                                                                   1 Peter 2:1-3

A) Love one another.

• How do we “P____ A______” these relationship killers?

B) Babes in Christ

• How do newborns L______ for milk?

• What is P______, spiritual milk?

• How does it help us G______?

C) T________ and see that the Lord is G______. (see also Hebrews 5:11-14)

1 Peter 2:1-3 (ESV) 

So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.

1 Peter 3:8 Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.

Hebrews 5:11 About this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. 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. 14 But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
