Hebrews 6:1–3 NKJV 1 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do if God permits.Everyone has a starting place.An origin story, The place it all beginsGenesis 1:1–5 NKJV 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. 3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.What is a principle?A principle is a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning.A Principle++A Foundation++An Anchor++A Starting Point++An Elementary UnderstandingGalatians 4:1–5 NKJV 1 Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all, 2 but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father. 3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world. 4 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.Every teaching, experience, success or failure God’s tool for our Maturity.1 Corinthians 13:11 NKJV 11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.Maturity is a choice++To know++To Grow++To Put AwayThe High Call to PerfectionHebrews 6:1–2 NKJV 1 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.We saySome has perfect pitchA team has a perfect gameSome one made a perfect mealPerfection is++Not a condition++Is a pursuit connected to a standardIt is impossible to measure perfection without a standardThe Perfection of the Lord’s LawPsalm 19:7 NKJV 7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;His law is in Process++Converting the soul++Making wise the simpleHebrews 7:19 NKJV 19 for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.The Law made nothing perfect.++Reveals his principles++Draw us near to Him++Shows us we need HimRomans 3:19 NKJV 19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.The law points to perfectionHebrews 10:1 NKJV 1 For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect.The Law of the Lord++Begins the process++Provides what we need to growPerfection can mean++Without error++Flawless++Complete++HolyMoving from Principle to Perfection will requireRaising the BarColossians 3:1 NKJV 1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.Raise the BarRaise the Bar in what we seekLuke 7:24 NKJV 24 When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see?

It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.2 Peter 1:3 NKJV 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,Raise the BarRaise the Bar in what we sayPhilippians 1:27 NKJV 27 Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,Hebrews 13:5 NKJV 5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.
