Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
Spiritual maturity is defined for us as being able to rightly discern good and evil, which are principles that God alone has the right to set. To learn these things, we must come to believe God when He tells us something in the pages of the Bible. There is a very long history of not doing so, and the impact of that, is great. We look at the ramifications that would be extent if we actually believed what God says, and the two things that underpin Satan's assault on us not doing so. Those two things are an evil heart of unbelief, and the removal of the fear, awe, and reverence of God from society, thus nullifying God's words to us. This blinds us in the commission to discern good and evil. We have to fix that.

Colossians 1:23-26 NKJV
If indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.
I now rejoice in my suffering for you and fill up in my flesh what was lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church (called out ones),>br>
of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God (Theos-the Father) which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,
the mystery which has been hidden from ages and generations but now revealed to His saints.
