A verse from the Bible Box, Luke 6:45 KJV "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh."
From the Pastor's Desk, twice recently I was confronted with two people that I have spoken with, witnessed too, and prayed with, Both assuring me they are Christians. Both used foul, cursing, swearing words when speaking to me. I told them they needed to take a heart check, and quoted today's Bible verse. Jesus warns us not to be deceived, and let no man deceive you. Meaning we can deceive ourselves, or be deceived by others.
Do you need to take a heart check? What has been coming out of your mouth? If you find cursing, swearing, or the use of slang words coming out of your mouth, it originated in your heart. That means words like, gosh, darn, damn, the F word or friggin, fricken, OMG, or Oh My God, should not be used. Most times when OMG or Oh My God are used it is not in reference to worship or awe of God. Take the heart check. Don't be afraid to repent and ask God to forgive you.
