When learning how to shoot a rifle in the Army, there are four basic fundamentals that one must master. They are as followed: position, aim, breathing, and squeezing of the trigger. Before one can pass basic training and especially before one takes the battle field, they must have mastered those four elements.
Now, I can only assume that as one progresses in the world of marksmanship and they get to do higher tasks in the army, that they may have shots that only a few in this world can accurately make. For example, one may have to make a shot a mile away, through a window, in a suburb, while their target is next to a sleeping cat. However, no matter the situation, some things stay the same: the fundamentals.
I have heard some say that once one has been a follower of Christ for a while, they graduate the basics and go on to more deep things about God and the world, leaving the basics behind. While God will show you more about Him and deeper Truths about His Word, He commands you to remember the basics, as they are your justification to Him. Christ still died for your sins! On a bloody Cross and was Risen three days later and is now with the Father until the Day of His Return! There is no such thing as graduating from that! It is the Fundmental Truth and Justification for our Salvation!
