This is so great and informative. we can also recall all the times that words spoken to us in a hateful, condescending, and critical manner have made us feel as low as we could possibly go. When those kinds of negative words start cutting right through you like a knife, they can penetrate deep into the heart and soul and cause major damage to the emotions and psyche of a person. Especially if that person is not old enough or mature enough to consider the negative source from where they are coming from, and then realize that his own self-worth as a person is not based upon what other people may think about him, but only what God thinks of him. There is a Golden rule that says that we should treat others the way we would want them to that us. If we apply this rule to this theme, we could then say that we should "speak to others the way that we would want them to speak to us." How we talk and express ourselves to other people should never be taken for granted, for our words are really powerful. They can either be used to bring life, love, edification and encouragement into a person's life or bring death, destruction, negativity, and torment.
Below are some verses of the bible where God talked about the tongue and our speech. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. an untamed tongue is the world's deadliest weapon! An unsanctified loose tongue is worse than dry or alcohol abuse. It is worse than any sin of the flesh! The Bible calls the tongue a world of iniquity, a defiler of multitude taste of hell on earth! But the tongue no man can tame, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. So let's learn to control our tongue. Thanks for sharing
