Christian maturity doesn’t just happen to us passively.  We need to actively pursue it.  In order to grow as Christians, we would be wise to develop some good spiritual habits.  Paul points out two things we can do to aid in spiritual growth in 1 Tim. 4:6-10.  First, he encourages us to 1) Stay True to God’s Word – we need to focus on the truth, and at the same time identify the errors which stand against it.  Secondly, Paul issues the call to 2) Train Yourself to be Godly – we need to develop and grow in personal holiness, striving for integrity in all we do.

 

Spiritual growth requires spiritual exercise focused on spiritual truth.
