Sometimes sections of the Bible are used to justify or to condemn certain activities – sometimes the Bible is misunderstood. Sometimes people give up trying to ...read more

    Why is the F*** word and and the Sh** word used so freely today? Jesus doesn’t directly include this in what He says about oaths in Matthew 5 but it is there by way of application and other passages enlarge on this area of sin, so I am taking a detour.
