1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
Here Paul lets the people know they have not gown enough in the Lord since he last saw them for him to give them any stronger message than that of salvation. He lets them know he fed them only the essential things they needed because they could not handle the deeper things of God. He even goes on to say that even now they are not ready for it. They are still acting like carnal people it their fusing and fighting among themselves. Paul here is addressing something i believe we see in too many churches today. People who think they are as close to God as they get and are all holy when in fact they are just the opposite because of all the strife they cause. We need to be careful in teaching as well as learning about the word of God that we do not overdo it to the point that we put ourselves above others.
