Our text for this week is Ephesians 4:25:
Therefore, laying aside falsehood, speak truth, each one of you, with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.

The verse for this week’s study is Ephesians 4:15:
But speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him, who is the head, even Christ.
This is another one of those verses that could be worthy of a lifetime of study. If this one verse had been heeded it is likely that literally millions of people would have avoided being needlessly killed in wars and persecutions by their fellow Christians during the church age. If this verse were heeded today, there...
