The Bible contains many spiritual truths necessary for spiritual growth. Some of those truths are basic and some are more advanced. Fundamental biblical truths that are keys to spiritual growth include salvation, assurance, eternal security, trials, how to understand the Scripture, prayer, the means of spiritual growth, the will of God, the provision of God, the love of God, and the Judgment Seat of Christ.
It is not unusual for Christians to be confused concerning these basic biblical truths needed for spiritual growth. Confusion over these issues produces spiritual instability. Paul says, "we all" need to come to the "knowledge of the Son of God, to the perfect man, to the measure of the sport to California next stature of the fullness of Christ that we should no longer be children, tossed two and fro and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting" (Eph. 4:13-14).
