Good knowledge is power

We always hear that knowledge is power. I need to add another word to that sentence. Good knowledge is power.
The book of Hebrews was written for the Jews but non-Jewish people can learn from this book when they follow the Lord Jesus.
Spiritual laziness is not just a problem with non-Jewish but with the believers in Yesua that are Jewish.
Hebrews 5:11-14 says, "We have much to say about this, but it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand.  In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!  Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil."
Everyday, the Jewish believers needed to have read the Bible and apply the lessons but they were not.
The author of this book rebuked the people. 
The good news is that if a person fails, God will forgive that person. The author wanted the Jewish believers to repent and begin a workout program with the Bible, so they would be strong.
We will all fail but God is here to encourage us.
