  1. Jas.3:2-10– “2 For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also. 3 Now if we put the horses' bridles into their mouths that they may obey us, we turn about their whole body also. 4 Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, whither the impulse of the steersman willeth. 5 So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire! 6 And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. 7 For every kind of beasts and birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind. 8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is a restless evil, it is full of deadly poison. 9 Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the likeness of God: 10 out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.”

  2. Matt.12:33-37– “33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit. 34 Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35 The good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things: and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36 And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”

  3. Jas.1:19– “19 Ye know this, my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:” Rom.14:19– “19 So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.”

  4. The Christian’s Speech Should be PURE Eph.5:3,4– “3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints; 4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of thanks.” Eph.4:29– “29 Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear.” Clark: “Artfully turned discourse or words, from eu, well or easily, and trepw, I turn; words that can be easily turned to other meanings; double entendres; chaste words which, from their connection, and the manner in which they are used, convey an obscene or offensive meaning.” Obscenity; Profanity; Shamefulness From root word meaning: disfigured, twisted, shameful Barnes, “That is, obscene or indecent conversation. Literally, that which is shameful, or deformed.”

  5. The Christian’s Speech Should be SEASONED Col.4:6– “6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer each one.” Matt.5:13– “13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.”

  6. The Christian’s Speech Should be SOUND Titus 2:1,7,8– “1 But speak thou the things which befit the sound doctrine: … 7 in all things showing thyself an ensample of good works; in thy doctrine showing uncorruptness, gravity, 8 sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us”

  7. The Christian’s Speech Should be SOUND 2 Tim.1:13,14– “13 Hold the pattern of sound words which thou hast heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 14 That good thing which was committed unto thee guard through the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us.” Heb.13:15– “15 Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.”
