The Bible uses the analogy of physical birth and growth in order to illustrate how one becomes a child of God, and how as such, spiritual growth and development then become possible. Dr. Hudson expounds systematically how the biblical principles in the analogy should be understood and applied. His discussion of Diet and Discipline, under the regimen of faith, carry over into steady spiritual growth and development. He invites all Christians to consider what is expected of them, even in their daily living, if they expect to bring glory to God. He does not pull any punches, but lets his reader know that continuing a childlike level of development can not only bring discontentment to himself, but also great displeasure to God.
