Topic: Mind Your Language!

2 Tim 3.But know this, that in the last days [a]perilous times will come: 2For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3unloving, [b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

Youth statistics are saying that your age is the age where vulgarity has become a growing language Written by Jannik Linder of A Global Commerce Media LLC Company https://gitnux.org/profanity-statistics

86% of parents cite their teenage children as occasional users of profanity offers an insightful anchor into the pervasive nature of swearing in today’s youth.
Parents’ use of profanity increases the likelihood of their children using profanity.

TV programs classified as comedy had the most frequent use of profanity per hour. Moreover, it invites discussions on societal acceptance of these words, the shifting boundary lines of what constitutes ‘offensive’, and the potential influence of such language on viewers, particularly younger demographics.

66% of Americans are bothered a lot by people using profanity in public.

Luke 23.39 Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, [j]“If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.” 40But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? 41And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” 42Then he said [k]to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” 43And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

1. Who recognised He was a King from an eternal Kingdom and asked Jesus to remember him when Jesus returned to eternity (the humble heart was saved);
2. The other who was blinded and blasphemed Jesus and sought selfish gain meaning He is not just rude but also in that rudeness wanting God to save him? (the prideful heart was lost)

What does scripture say about Vulgar language?

Eph 4.29 29Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary [h]edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. 30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, [i]clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. 32And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Col 3.8 But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. 9Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him, 11where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all.

James 1.26 If anyone [e]among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless.

Luke 6.45A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil [i]treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

Proverbs 4.24 Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips.

James 3.7 All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, 8but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be.

David speaks Psal 34. 11 Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. 12Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies. 14Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.

Matt 24.12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

Eph 5.4 But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; 4neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 5For [a]this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7Therefore do not be partakers with them.

Jude 1:18 ..."In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires."
