If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.
- James 1:26 (NLT)
Has there ever been a time where you have opened your mouth and the words that spilled out were so hateful, sarcastic or mean that you immediately wished that you could take them back?
Anyone that answers that question no probably doesn’t need to read any further.
Since all of us are still here though, we can talk about this . . .
I know a lot of people that won’t go to a church because the churches they have been to have been filled with hypocrites, people that are Christians on Sunday morning and anything but the rest of the week.
I have seen a recent uptick in the number of posts on social media about “treating people right is better than posting Bible verses every day that you don’t even practice”.
Things that make you go hmmmmm. . . .
If we are claiming religion but we are doing the opposite of what His word says, then the religion we claim is worthless.
Can we not care for people that need us?
True religion is not talking at others, but giving to others.
Hear the real Word.
Let it soak in.
Control your tongue.
