Speaking Truth in Love

Ephesians 4:15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—

Truth & love go together.  They both define each other.  You cant have one without the other.  These are Gods attributes.  
some speak truth, but are very harsh and condemning.  They give no place for others and worse, they are self confemning.
others are all about love, or at least their definitions of it.  Their love is everything but Gods love because Gods love is truth.  They say you must be accepting of others lifestyles or ideas as loving.  They say you cant accuse their love of being harmful.  Some even used the slogan love over hate.  Of course we all want love over hate but only Gods clear defined love conquered hate.  While they require you accept their form of love, you see no fruits of love in their lives.
Those who are just all truth become harsh legalists.  Those who are all love become wishy washy and fall for every evil thing.
