| v.29 Corrupt Communication |
|
Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace to the hearers. God uses the church to give His free gift, grace. The church consists of ministries, not a group of people. Ministries minister. They serve. They build each other up, that is, they edify one another. They comfort one another. They encourage each other. That is the nature of ministry. When we speak words that come from the throne of God, then those words flow with the anointing of God. They are filled with God's grace. Grace is the power of God to transfigure us into the same image of Christ. God has a purpose in mind. He wants to bring us into the likeness of Jesus. We can't do that, but He can. The church is God's method for doing that, not the plastic, artificial church, but the church that God is building according to His pattern as He has laid it out in Scripture.
How can we know anything about anything? That’s the real question |
