What Does the Bible Say About What We Say?Some thoughts on the wisdom of looking at the waveforms.Scriptures MentionedProverbs 10:19 (AMP) When there are many words, transgression and offense are unavoidable, But he who controls his lips and keeps thoughtful silence is wise.Proverbs 11:9 “Evil words destroy one’s friends; wise discernment rescues the godly.Proverbs 15:4 “Gentle words bring life and health; a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit.”Proverbs 16:24 “Kind words are like honey – sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.”Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”Proverbs 18:4 “A person’s words can be life-giving water; words of true wisdom are as refreshing as a bubbling brook.”Proverbs 12:18 “There is one who speaks rashly like he thrusts of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.”Proverbs 25:18 “Telling lies about others is as harmful as hitting them with an ax, wounding them with a sword, or shooting them with a sharp arrow.”Luke 6:43-45 “For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit. For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.”Proverbs 21:23 “Whosoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble.”James 3:5 “In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire.”James 1:26 “If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.”Proverbs 17:18 “Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.”Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”Matthew 24:35 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.”Romans 14:12 “So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.”Matthew 12:36 “But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an account for it in the day of judgement.”Great article with all these verses and more, by Ashley EvansMusic by Tommy WalkerSign up for my Substack letter here.(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) Go to my website www.wleewarrenmd.com for more information about my letter, this show, my books, and more. John to Know, James to Grow bible study   This is a public episode.
