This is not for those that do not profess to be Christians. This is for those that occupy the pulpits and pews of the churches of this country every Sunday morning. This is for those that evidentially have never read the following verses…..
1John 2:6 Whoever says he abides in Him ought [as a personal debt] to walk and conduct himself in the same way in which He walked and conducted Himself.
Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
I seem to be coming across the path of more and more professing Christians that seem to think it is okay to speak inappropriately. Many think that the profanity that spews from their mouths is not bad because it is “mild profanity”. In the Lord’s eyes (and ears) profanity is profanity! If we are truly “in Christ” we will not be allowing filth to depart from our lips.
Psalms 19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to You, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
This verse should be enough to make us think about what comes from our mouths. I guarantee that much of what is coming from the mouths of many people occupying the pulpits and pews of the churches is not “pleasing the Lord”.
Matthew 15:11 It's not what goes into your mouth that defiles you; you are defiled by the words that come out of your mouth."
Probably at the top of what I cannot stand to hear is how the word “Holy” is trashed! This word should not be used in conjunction with any word that is not tied in with our Holy Father. If we look at the definition of the word then it should show us why it is such an abomination to use it the way it is used in this country.
HO'LY, - dedicated or consecrated to God
The Hebrew word for Holy is “qodesh” which means “set-apartness”, “separateness”, “sacredness”
Some synonyms for Holy would be “set apart”, “consecrated”, “sacred”, “hallowed”, “revered”, “divine”, “blessed”, and “dedicated”.
I could go much deeper into the meaning but this should be enough to see that the way many use the word is so wrong. Some examples are “holy cow”. A place that you would find the cow being called holy would be for those who follow the false religion of Hinduism. One place that it was made famous in this country was by a baseball announcer who used the phrase often. Being tied into sports makes many things permissible in this country. Another place it was misused and made so popular was in the Batman series.
Proverbs 15:28 The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking; the mouth of the wicked overflows with evil words.
Some other pitiful examples of its misuse in this country are holy s**t, holy c**p, (It would be no one other than the devil that would tie the word in with defecation). I heard my oldest granddaughter say “holy guacamole”??? I immediately sat her down and talked to her about the meaning of the word. My granddaughter loves Jesus but like many she repeated what she heard someone else say. We must place guards at our ear gates to now allow the enemy to come in! There are many other misuses that people come up with.
Proverbs 16:23 The mind of the wise instructs his mouth, and adds learning and persuasiveness to his lips.
If the churches of this country did a better job of teaching on Holiness we would not be hearing so much misuse. Many churches do not want to teach on Holiness because it will affect their numbers. In this country people want to be “church goers” but they also do not want to give up the world’s ways. They want to be able to serve two masters and there are plenty of false churches in this country that will allow them to do so. There will be masses of people that lift their eye lids one day to find themselves in a place called HELL because they did not want to live their lives according to the Word of God!
Hebrews 12:14 Strive to live in peace with everybody and pursue that consecration and Holiness without which no one will [ever] see the Lord.
Another word that many “professing christians” use ties in with urination. Example: that “p****d me off”. I know that some are thinking “now that really isn’t that bad of a word”. Do you really think that Jesus would talk like that?
Proverbs 15:28 The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking; the mouth of the wicked overflows with evil words.
The word “sucks” is very popular with “professing christians” today in this country. Even though it has ties with oral sex it does not stop people from saying it. Some would say that not all ties are to oral sex but even if one example is that way shouldn’t it be enough to not say the word?
Ephesians 4:29 Don't use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.
Here is another area that is common for “professing christians”, which come from the “F” family. “Fricken” and “friggin” are relatives of the awful word “F**K”. I was doing some research and came upon the Urban Dictionary which gave an interesting description of the alternative words. It said “an alternative for those of us too classy to use the word "f*****g”.
Proverbs 15:2 The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing, but the mouth of a fool belches out foolishness.
Too often “professing Christians” compare themselves to other professing Christians instead of comparing themselves to what the Word of God says. So many people in this country will “church shop” until they can find one where they can be comfortable in their sinful life. It is not hard to find a so called church today that will tolerate whatever type of sin one practices.
Ephesians 4:31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior.
A “true Christian” will not speak like the world speaks. A “true Christian” will strive daily to be more like Jesus. There are many out there who profess to be Christians that need to cleanse their heart before it is too late.
Matthew 12:34 You offspring of vipers! How can you speak good things when you are evil (wicked)? For out of the fullness (the overflow, the superabundance) of the heart the mouth speaks. 35 The good man from his inner good treasure flings forth good things, and the evil man out of his inner evil storehouse flings forth evil things. 36 But I tell you, on the Day of Judgment men will have to give account for every idle (inoperative, nonworking) word they speak. 37 For by your words you will be justified and acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned and sentenced.
I pray that people will wake up and live a life that glorifies Christ Jesus. So many “professing christians” are headed straight for eternal hell. True Christians must take a stand against all unrighteousness! People will get mad at you on this earth for telling them the truth but wouldn’t that be better than knowing that you could have kept someone from eternal hell and you failed to warn them?
1John 2:6 Whoever says he abides in Him ought [as a personal debt] to walk and conduct himself in the same way in which He walked and conducted Himself.
Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
