以弗所书 4:25 所以，你们要除掉谎言，各人要与邻舍说真话，因为我们是彼此是肢体。(新译本)
Ephesians 4:25 Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. (NKJV)
既然你已经是新人——新造的人——圣经教导我们要除掉谎言。那什么是谎言呢？谎言不仅仅是说虚假的话，更是任何与神话语相违背的言语。若神说你是健康的，你却说自己生病，你就是认同了谎言。若神的话在哥林多后书6:10中说，我们能使许多人富足，而你却说自己是贫穷的，这同样也是谎言。不要再对自己或他人说出这些与真理不符的话语。让我们对彼此说真话——就是神的真理——因为我们是彼此是肢体。让我们一同宣告天上的真理，并在生命的各个层面——属灵上、身体上、经济上、情感上——都经历丰盛。我们渴望看见使徒行传中初代教会所见证的神迹奇事，而当我们的口与神的话语对齐时，这些神迹也必将在我们中间显明。阿们！
Now that you are a new man - a new creation - the Bible instructs us to put away lying. But what is lying? It is not just telling falsehoods—it is saying anything that contradicts the Word of God. If God’s Word says you are healthy, then saying you are sick is agreeing with a lie. If the Word says, as in 2 Corinthians 6:10, that we can make many rich, then saying you are poor is also a lie. Stop lying to yourself and to those around you. Let us instead speak the truth—God’s truth—with one another, for we are members of one body. Let us declare heavenly truths together and see prosperity in every area of our lives—spiritually, physically, financially, and emotionally. We want to see the signs and wonders that the early Church witnessed in the book of Acts—and we will, when we align our words with the Word of God. Amen!
