The "Discipline of the Secret" was the obligation of Christian believers to keep sacred their knowledge of the more profound doctrines of God, their advancing in what the [[Saint Paul|Apostle Paul]] called the maturity of "meat" as beyond the initial nourishment of "milk" (1 Corinthians 3:2; Hebrews 5:12–6:6; 1 Peter 2:2).
