Speaking The Truth in Love

Sermon Application Questions:

1. Why is it so crucial and necessary for us to be “truthing in love” (the idea of living and giving the truth in a loving way in word and deed) rather than merely telling the truth or saying we love someone? (1 John 3:10, 16-24; 4:7-12)
2. How do the following Scripture passages give shape to living and giving the truth in a loving way? (Romans 12:9; Eph. 4:25; James 2:14-17; 1 Peter 1:22-2:3)
3. How does doing what 4:15 says cause the church to grow up comprehensively in Christ? (Eph. 1:22, 2:21, 5:23; Col. 1:15-20)
