                                                   Part #3 – “Learning to Live in Love”
                                                                       Eph. 4:25-5:2

​
 
The journey of holiness and recovery are life-long processes of learning and growing in God’s authentic love. 
 
Today, we are going to launch this holiness/recovery journey by seeing how we can move from the maze of DELUSION
 to an authentic life of DISCLOSURE.

 
v.25 … Paul gives us 3 steps from delusion to disclosure …

1. Confront and be done with falsehood …
2. Learn to speak the truth …
3. Connect to the body of Christ …

w ca do this?

1. By Rejecting the darkness – (4:17-19,22)

   Many people have no idea they are wondering in darkness until they suffer bruises from bumping into dead ends.   WHAT IS THE ANSWER?

•  Allowing God to pierce the darkness      

2.  By Recovering Reality (4:23)   

• Renew your mind … see the truth in your beliefs and apply them in your journey. 

 
 
Rom.12:1-2 … being transformed into a new person, through the work of the H.S. in your life, and by changing the way you think.
