Lying: 3

From: CareLines: Volume 2 By: Paul J. Pascoe

Ephesians 4:25 • 1 min. read • grade level: 5

EPH 4:25²⁵Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another. (Ephesians 4:25)

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth . . . for we are members one of another.

Eph. 4:25²⁵Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another. (Ephesians 4:25)

The word used for lying here literally means “falsehood, the practice of lying.” It is a terribly sad thing when believers are habitual liars. In this verse, the motive for not lying is that we are members of the same body. When we lie to other Christians it is like lying to ourselves. Have nothing to do with this awful practice. If you have a problem with it, pray earnestly to the Lord that He will help you overcome.
