Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd using stories. He did not say anything to them without telling a story.So the words spoken by the prophet came true. He had said,“ I will open my mouth and tell stories. I will speak about things that were hidden since the world was made.”( Psalm 78:2)

“ I have much more to say to you. It is more than you can handle right now.

We have a lot to say about this. But it is hard to make it clear to you. That’s because you are no longer trying to understand.By this time you should be teachers. But in fact, you need someone to teach you all over again. You need even the simple truths of God’s word. You need milk, not solid food.Anyone who lives on milk is still a baby. That person does not want to learn about living a godly life.Solid food is for those who are grown up. They have trained themselves to tell the difference between good and evil. That shows they have grown up.

Brothers and sisters, I couldn’t speak to you as people who live by the Holy Spirit. I had to speak to you as people who were still following the ways of the world. You aren’t growing as Christ wants you to. You are still like babies.The words I spoke to you were like milk, not like solid food. You weren’t ready for solid food yet. And you still aren’t ready for it.
