Ephesians 4:5 Commentary: “Speaking the Truth”, are three English words used to express one Greek word. It means to express the actual truth in the reality of God’s love! Not a counterfeit love where with words we appear to love but the real love of God! There are two kinds of money. Real and counterfeit! One has value and the other worthless! The worthless Satan tries to pass himself off to you as real! Deception! The counterfeit will fool a lot of people but not the government who made the money! Our creator created love and expressed it to us here on earth! However his love and his Christ existed before time! Satan tries to counterfeit God’s love! He will give you a deceptive appearance like he cares for you yet wants to destroy you and separate you from the love of God! My Bible says anyone who tries to climb up to God in anyway except through Christ is a thief and a liar! Only Christ the Son of God can lead you to God! God sacrificed himself for your gain! Satan and his followers will try to sacrifice you for their gain! You are expendable to Satan! Satan’s only perceived gain is to drag you away from the love of God! So you can accompany him in hell! All ideologies are either based on truth or a lie! Jesus said i am the truth! The reality of truth is base in the God/man Christ! The spirit that dwells in you depends on who you are following! Life or death! Light or darkness! Love or hate! Redemption or judgment! Jesus said to pick up your Cross and follow me! The Cross represents suffering and sacrifice! Go and suffer and sacrifice yourself so others might understand the love of God! To comprehend the truth! Be the suffering servant to go to those that have no hope! God’s love was expressed in creation for you and then to a Cross! Your debt for your sin has been paid for! Truth and love were nailed to a Cross! Two things happen to you when your read your Bible! You discern the truth and then you can detect the counterfeit! Why is the Bible the number one best seller book in all of history yet it is the most banned book in all of history? Why? Because it is truth! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
