In 2 Corinthians 10:12, Paul tells his opponents that one way to correctly measure spiritual growth is to discontinue using worldly yardsticks, and begin using God’s yardstick (2 Corinthians 10:13). By the world’s measure, Paul seemed a failure, but in God’s eyes he was a glorious conqueror (Romans 8:31-39). In this article, let us briefly look at four biblical standards by which we can accurately measure spiritual growth.
1) Spiritual Diet Meat vs. Milk (1 Corinthians 3:1-2). Are we studying and learning more about God’s Word, going broader and deeper than ever before, or are we satisfied with what we’ve known for years, or worse yet, not reading and studying at all? (2 Timothy 2:15).
