    Fourteen benefits of Spirit led restraint in our speech. Many problems could be avoided if we learn how to restrain our lips using discretion, tract and Spirit-led self-control. Prevention is better than any cure.

    The Benefits of Restraint (James 1:19-21) Solomon wrote, "Where there are many words, trangressions are unavoidable but he who restrains his lips is wise." James wrote, "Let everyone be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger." (James 1:19) Preventive Tactics Things you should never ...read more

    How many times have we spit fire and have said more than we meant to say? How many times have we lost our cool? James is talking about teaching and self-control as it relates to speech.

    Words matter. Proverbs gives us some advice on how to speak well.

    One of the most difficult things to do in life is to control what you say. We do a good job for a while but then in one weak moment and we can do irreparable damage.

    Liars Or Living Letters? (1994)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 20, 2022
     | 545 views

    Christian speech involves kindness, purity and truth as the three elements of godly speech for Christians. Take away any of those three and you are in danger of being a liar when the Bible makes it clear that we are to be living letters for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

    LIARS OR LIVING LETTERS? Text: Colossians 3:5-9a In the Walt Disney movie "Pinnochio" there is a scene where Pinnochio's nose grows every time he tells a lie. And the point of that scene is that the more you lie, the more you have to lie to make all your ...read more
