| So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding.

We must not be forever laying the foundation: repentance for actions that lead to death, faith in God, instruction about baptisms and the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. |
