"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble..." (I Cor. 3:11-12)
How do we begin to build eternal gold, silver, and precious stones upon the foundation of Jesus Christ? In the book of Hebrews we find the instructions:
"Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment." (Heb. 6:1-2)
That list of the foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ is what is known as the milk of the Word, and every Christian should understand those principles. If they are built on the foundation of Jesus Christ in our hearts, we may go on unto perfection.
The Foundation: Jesus Christ explores each principle in order, clearly presenting the milk of the Word.
Volume one in the Friends of the Living God series, Great Signs and Wonders: What is Wrong with Christianity?, is also available, by the way, as an ebook and a paperback.
