Shredder

New employee: “I put these documents in the fax machine, but they didn’t come back out.”

Old employee: “That’s a paper shredder.”

New employee: “Oh! Can you set it to reverse? Those papers are important.”

A learning curve, a lack of training and confusion about the world around you can lead to some monumental mistakes that can’t be corrected. The writer to Hebrews addressed such a group of individuals:

Hebrews 5:12

For though by this time, you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

Never put people into a position they aren’t prepared for. This is especially true in handling the Word of God.

Give it some thought.
