Re: Adult Relationship With God
The new covenant he describes in Jeremiah is really a description of a more mature relationship. He no longer has to teach or discipline, just as we don't need to continue teaching or disciplining our adult children
​
Interesting. At what point in our history do you think God decided we were "grown" enough to no longer need disciplining? Was there an event in the bible that this moment of transformation can be traced to?
