Divine Service Summary – Sunday, 4 August 2019

Title: Being truthful

Bible verse: Ephesians 4: 25

Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbour,” for we are members of one another.

Message: Truthfulness is to define us in our relationship with Christ and with one another

Summary

  • Christ Himself is the truth.
  • The foundation for our truthfulness is our orientation to the divine will.
  • The commandment to love our neighbour incorporates truthfulness toward our neighbour.
  • Truthfulness is also a necessity in faith.
  • Denying the sacrificial death of Jesus or His resurrection, for example, would also falsify the gospel and thereby turn it into a lie.
