May 2, 2019 – Ephesians 4:25-27

Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil. Ephesians 4:25-27.

 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 1:6.   

From the beginning of time, Truth is supreme. Telling the Truth is not only the Way to live, Truth leads to Life. So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32.  

Truth holds hands with kindness and forgives one another other. Being angry leads to bitterness and opens the door of our hearts to the devil. Walking with Him in Truth, we can forgive one another.. 

Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,  bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.  And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.  Colossians 3:12-14.

Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart,  since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God. I Peter 1:22-23.

Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4:31-32.
