What does the Bible say about Foul Language?

- God is concerned about language because words have power. Obscene language comes from a place that attacks God and His creation. When we take the Lord’s name in vain, we corrupt a spiritually-empowered name intended for blessing. Our words are meant to build people up, not tear them down.
Verses: Eph. 5:1-4; 4:29; Exod. 20:7
Teacher: John Schoenheit
This is something that is so common today. Even with some people that call themselves Christians.
Thanks for putting this out. Everyday I want to learn Gods will for my life. I’m a wretch and Jesus saved me. Now it’s time to obey. Obey because I believe. Obey because I’m grateful. God give me wisdom and help me obey you!
As the Holy Bible says: "You are the light of the world!" And when light shine darkness gone.
I have a group of friends who have been catholic all their lives (I am too by the way). But recently they started saying things like the 'f' word and 's' word on a daily basis, a lot of them keep bringing up reasons on why swearing isn't that big a deal. And a couple of them are deadly smart. I'm fourteen and most of them are around that age too. Now, I live in australia, and a lot of them use the excuse saying it's aussie culture, which is ridiculous, and I see it as a shield against me that they use. Now I don't wanna lose their friendship but I also want them to stop swearing. What do I do?
I think you taught so well on swearing and what it represents for Christians, because a lot of people seem to downplay it and excuse it. I always look to Jesus's example and point out that he never spoke with foul language, but this gives a lot of meaning and backup to how that should look.
This lesson was necessary for me to hear as I contemplate who I associate with from this point on.
@ david russell's question - 1 corinthians 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
I was just thinking, how did we go from Andy Griffith shows to Modern Family or Schitts Creek? Always Always be discerning with what you watch, hear and speak and people you associate with
I don't want to be around anyone that cusses
This message has been helpful to me, thank you God!
One of the very first things God will teach a new born Christian is to control what comes out of the mouth. There's power there to speak blessings and curses over your life and others lives. That was my experience. I know it changes from person to person depending on your situation. That is why we have a personal Savior.
Great video
Nice anchor emblem. I agree with what you said on language. Maybe like other issues of temptation and unruliness we can help ourselves by focusing on something more positive. If TV lowers you standards, then read a good book instead.
Amen this was a good teaching. I Will meditate on this for a while. Praise God.
God bless you
Carla Linton. Amen.
sanitized cuss words are euphemisms for cuss words....like darn for damn...or oh my gosh for oh my God ...oh Geez or oh gee... for oh Jesus...etc.
Euphemisms are no better...because they are idle words which Jesus condemned.
This is a great contribution. I appreciate your video! I will be calling on it repeatedly, thank you very much!
Thanks a lot for all your videos.
I'll pray for you and your families. God bless.
Seems like a bit of a stretch to me; “obscenities”; but, thank you for sharing - it’s appreciated.
thank you for you're video
I recently joined a company where I'm supposed to transcribe (caption) every word that comes out of the caller's mouth (through voice-typing) including all sorts of words.. It's my job to caption each word as it is ( staying verbatim).
Is it bad if i caption cuss words as they are, if i don't mean them?
Carla Linton. Using Foul Language is a sin and not right with The Good Lord Jesus Christ.
I'm sure i'm not the only one enjoying these videos. Please keep the videos coming!
I enjoy them too!
the bible says we are judged by the company we keep
Love please forgive me Father and please help me to stop cursing..
This really insightful!
Amen
me I don't hang around anyone only family because I don't trust anyone
Great Video!
I like the video but what words that people come up with to replace cussing. like instead of the "s" word I say crap? this is bothering me coz I don't know if I'm sining wean I say crap or freakin.
this didn't really touch on what I wanted to know, so here is my question. Say I'm with my best friend and I throw a little "you are looking ugly today" and he laughs because he knows I'm joking with him and don't actually mean it to hurt his feelings, and he knows what I expect him to do is do the same thing back to me, but all in good fun of course..........and another situation, say I'm playing a game of, say pool, and I miss my shot and say the more vulgar version "darn it" am I wrong for that? keep in mind I'm not mad at myself or anyone else, just a small disappointment that I missed my shot.
Justin Sparks no bad words
Born again Christians do not talk like the worldly people. They are a new creation. Even the occasion for this sort of conversation would not happen or would be stopped mid flight. There is not that kind of on going conversation between a son of God and a son of the devil. I dropped my devil friends a long time ago.
Hi, there is a problem in America about profanity? Or it is not considered a problem and does not interfere with communication? I am from Eastern Europe and learn your customs

This is great
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
Thank You
Is it bad to say Jesus christ when something exceeds our expectations, example, JC that kid can throw a fast baseball (90mph), or JC that house is huge, or JC that cake smells good. Like can we use it to show shock or amazement when we compare things?
Hey Violet,
Thank you for your comment! John talks about this point at about 5:25 in this video. Hope that helps answer your question.
God bless!
I think it depends on when you're saying it and why. For example if you are frustrated and you say it, that's bad. But if you are happy with a miracle or something good and you say it maybe it is okay.
5:30 the ultimate curse word throughout history "Jesus Christ"? idk the name jesus was invented in the 1600s. it does have power though
the bible has a lot to say
How do you define "foul" language? Why is any given word "foul"? Perhaps it is lies like "trinity" that are "foul" language.
Greg Logan anything bad is fowl
Leilani Graham What is "bad"?
And what do birds have to do with language?
Foul language is defined as evil words that comes out of your mouth
(I came here for a reason sadly)
