Here we see that milk is quite right for "newborn babes", being taken with the object

that growth may result. It is either a species of false humility, or a very sad confession of

failure, for a child of God of some years' standing to say: "I am but a babe."

Therefore while all ministry must adjust itself to the capacity of the hearer, there

should ever be that onward and upward urge that builds upon the foundation, grows by

the milk of the word, and leads on to the perfect man.
