TRUTHING

May 08, 2022
Pastor: Mason Peters


Main Scripture Reference(s):

Ephesians 4:14-16 (ESV)

So that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.

  • TRUTHING – to live in the truth in a Biblical, Godly way so that we are not pushed around by either external or internal deceit

John 8:43-45 (NIV)

Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. 44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!

Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
