Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
“Having your loins girt about with truth”: A belt is used to keep our clothing intact.
When we put our shirt and our blouse inside our pants or skirt, a belt is placed around our waist to these articles of clothing in place.
Truth is what is genuine, accurate, and in accordance to fact.
It is not what we believe from error or in misunderstanding of the Word of God that will set us free, but what believe about the Word which is its essence, reality, and accuracy.
Understanding and living out the Word of God in truth will keep the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ intact in our lives.
There are no shortcuts to knowing the Word of God in truth.
It takes time in the research and study of the Word, and an intimate walk with the Lord that will bring forth the revelation knowledge of His Word that sets us free.

I am deeply concerned that today when the art of reading, researching and studying has been replaced with Facebook posts, tweets, videos and Googled articles, the knowledge of the truth to set a Christian free is not enough.
Hence we see more disease, more oppression and more dysfunction in Christ’s body than ever before.
We see a church that is asleep, bored, and will less passion for the things of the Lord, than what the world has for its things.
The church should be displaying the greatest model for living on the earth, and it’s not.
The body of Christ must get back to the critical study of God’s Word.
If not the devil will have a heyday with us.
This is what our ministry teaches.
If you don’t have a hunger for the critical research and study of God’s Word, you must ask Got to put it in your heart.
Eph 4: 15 but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
The “truth in love” in this verse is not a noun, but a verb.
The Greek literally says, “but by truthing it in love, we grow up….”
The truth is what is right and according to fact of God’s word.
It’s not just speaking the truth of the Word of God
It’s an entire life which reflects the truth of Christ
This the truthing in love.
Our entire lives is the truth according to Christ
By confessing the truth, we grow up into Christ in all things.
Confession is an outward expression of what is really part of us.
We can only confess what is in us.
If we are living according to the revealed Christ so will be our confession.
By thruthing with our lives we grow into Christ in all things.
The truthing or confession is the result of walking in the truth and having the revelation of the Person of Christ.
The more revelation of the Christ, the more that we can grow up into Him.
The revelation of The Christ must be the end, and the object of all of our growth.
Christ is the object and goal to which our growth in its every stage must look to or be directed.
Because of this, in all points of our growth, and in all the circumstances of our growth, it is Christ who fills all and in all.
When Christ is not being revealed, the church grows up instead into things. These things are called the doctrines of men.
