These are all phrases we use all the time to say what it's not.
It was a description of reality.
That's what the command was.
It was a description of reality and instructions about how to enter into reality because to enter into reality is to live in harmony, is to live in joy, is to live in abundance, is to live in fruitfulness.
I mean, that's the whole thing, be fruitful and multiply, right?
So it's to live in that.
It's to live in your kingship.
It's to live in your priestly role.
It's all good things.
And so
The sin comes when you reject the commandment because you're rejecting God's revelation of reality.
And so a classical definition of truth is that truth is defined as when your thoughts...
match reality.
And then the relationship between those two things is called truth.
When my thought matches up with the way that the world really is.
And so if the way that the world really is, is that, hey, there's joy when you actually live a sacrificial life.
And then my thought is, man, if I start submitting
my life to my family, my wife, my church, my God, these areas, I'm going to experience joy.
That's truth.
And so when I love, the reality is that God is love, 1 John 4a and 1 John 410.
