Gospel Driven Communication BE HONEST! Ephesians 4:25
Put off falsehood • Falsehood is more than not lying. • Falsehood encourages others to believe what is not true.
Put off falsehood • Falsehood is driven by a love for self. • Self-protection • Self-righteousness
The gospel frees us to put off falsehood. • The gospel brings us out of hiding. • The gospel addresses our biggest problem. • The gospel gives us a new identity.
Speak truthfully • Speaking truth is about being honest. • Be truthful = no lying • Be clear = no deception • Be transparent = no pretending
The gospel gives us courage to be honest. • We can be honest because God is in control. • We can be honest because God is good. • We can be honest because God is satisfying.
Think biblically about other believers. • We are one in Christ. • Our unity reflect our maturity. • Love matures and unifies the church.
Make the gospel the driving force in your communication. BE HONEST!
