Milk and Meat

When we usually speak of milk and meat it is because food is the issue. However when that food is spiritual, the topic changes to how advanced is the one who can tolerate the message. For a child in faith the milk is the simple instruction to assist them in spiritual growth. When they grow then they should advance to understanding the reasons for instruction. This we call strong meat. Some never progress beyond their own needs to learn that G-d allows others to share HIS interest in HIS people, the Chosen nation of Israel. It is fairly common to find those who are interested but not to the point of involvement, ever learning but never submitting. If you wish to learn about Judaism, go to a library but you will never understand Judaism without interaction with Jews in a Jewish setting. The scriptures invite the nations to join Israel and be counted as one who is native born. The problem arises when the members of other nations assume a role of leadership and look down upon those who are native born but not as well versed in the Bible as they. This leads to disention and pride and is far from the wishes of our Maker who has broken down the middle wall of partition between Jew and Gentile. Few are allowed to progress to the strong meat of the word when it pertains to Loving another who may be different. Let us present a few scenerios from the Hebrew writings and perhaps you will order from the menu. Milk or Meat?
