(Col 3:8 NKJV)\u00a0 But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.<\/p>\n
Our words express what\u2019s in our heart. We can do a good job of covering up our true selves most of the time, but sooner or later our mouth will give us away and the real us shows through.<\/p>\n
As believers, we need to be sure we let God clean up our mouths and let Him help us get rid of the language that the rest of the world uses. We should not be walking around with R rated language spewing from our mouths. In fact, our language should be more along the lines of G rated\u2026 safe for the entire family.<\/p>\n
Oh\u2026 and that means the G rating of years ago\u2026 not the G rating of today, where \u201ccertain swear words\u201d are safe for the children.<\/p>\n
Let me be blunt. Our standards should not be the same as those of the Hollywood entertainment industry and we should not allow ourselves to become desensitized to foul language, even if it is in just about every TV show and movie these days.<\/p>\n
God says we are to put off filthy language from our mouths. We are to stop using it. God didn\u2019t compromise on this and we shouldn\u2019t compromise either.<\/p>\n
