in verse 13 we see the measure of Maturity
in vs 14 we see what maturity prevents.
Maturity Prevents:
Waffling
Gullible
eph 4:14b
Trickery of men
Cunning craftiness
Deceitful plots
These are not just errors in judgment or discerning , Paul is calling out that there are people out that make Plans to deceive others.
speaking the truth in love
Not an excuse to be blunt , and abrasive.
Speaking the truth in love, Is being honest , kind with an intent that you genuinely love and have the persons best interest at heart.
Speaking the truth in love seems deceptively easy, but it is extremely difficult.
It is possible only for the believer who is thoroughly equipped in sound doctrine and in spiritual maturity.
For the immature believer, right doctrine can be no more than cold orthodoxy and love can be no more than sentimentality.
Only the mature man, the man who is growing up to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fulness of Christ is consistent in having sufficient wisdom to understand God’s truth and effectively present it to others; and only he has the continual humility and grace to present it in love and in power.
The combination of truth and love counteracts the two great threats to powerful ministry—lack of truth and lack of compassion.
Grow Up into Him
The Head
Authority
Leadership
Controlling Power
The Body
