In Hebrews 5 Paul is speaking of Christ when he says,

“of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.” (Hebrews 5:11)

He says, I’ve got a lot to say to you, but you can’t handle it. You can’t understand it. Your hearing hasn’t been fine tuned. You are dull of hearing. He continues:

“For when for the time ye out to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.” (Hebrews 5:12)

Falling (Or Feeling) Out Of Love? PDF Print E-mail

Love. Probably the most misused word in the English language. We “love” our kids, our dog, pizza, even certain television shows. But if we really want to learn about love, God’s Word is where we should turn.

The Bible talks a lot about love – what it is (1Corinthians 13), why we are told to love (1 John 4:19), ways we should express love (John 15:13). The Bible tells us how much God loves us (John 3:16) and that love is the greatest commandment of all (1Corinthians 13:13).

Unfortunately, and much to God’s displeasure, marriages break up all the time because couples have fallen “out of love.” But, according to the Bible, falling out of love is impossible because love is a choice. Feeling out of love, on the other hand, is possible. Even probable. Anyone who is married – even happily – will testify to that.
