• “Speaking the truth in love” (Eph. 4:15) “Speaking the truth” is one word in the original, and is a participle. Mr. J. N. Darby suggested coining a word to express it; “truthing.” It is not merely speaking the truth. It is being characterized by the truth; but all must be in love. A hard and fast intolerant spirit that makes the truth like a series of legal enactments, and is censorious toward those who see not eye to eye with oneself; this is far removed from the Spirit of truth. (“Proverbs Three” by H.A. Ironside)
