Milk and meat are metaphors in both the Old and New Testaments.
A diet of milk only may keep people from comprehending the true doctrine of God.
The doctrines of God are right reason like the Doctrine of Jesus bacause they consist of "precept upon precept".[1]
The word "precept" is from tsav[2] which often is said to usually mean ::command, ordinance and is from tsawvh[3] meaning command or order, even charge or enjoin -- appoint. It can have the natural sense of the cause and effect of the law of nature.
Nature's God, the devine creator, expresses the reason behind that creation to His people "with stammering lips and another tongue" not everyone can hear.[1]
The truth is often given those who will hear in bits and pieces because it is commonly to much to recieve at one time.
We as children of God often begin with milk but is always so that we are not broken or snaréd nor taken.
- "I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able." 1 Corinthians 3:2
We may get lots of people coming to the network.
We have many lurkers who want to take the people and gather them to themselves.
PCMs and MOREs should be working to gather people for kingdom purposes.
But should we do it on the groups or privately?
And then what do we say to them?
Where are they at in their journey?
What are they looking for milk or meat?
What are they ready for?
God knows and we need to listen to Him to know what to say and when to say it.
This is often very difficult to say or know.
Hebrews 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."
There are lots of pages that will help answer questions bit by bit with lots of links to other pages that may help answer some hard questions.
It also can be useful in adding links to stories you right by just adding the template code on that page.
It will always be a difficult thing to share the Gospel without offending someone but if we do it in love we may bear better fruit.
I think if we work together and put our net on the right side we will have good results.
