But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as
these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language
from your lips. (Colossians, 3:8)
If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep
a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself... (James,
1:26)
But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will
be subject to judgment. Again, whoever insults his broth-
er will be liable to the council; and whoever says, 'You
fool!' will be liable to the hell of fire... (Matthew, 5:22)
For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your
words you will be condemned [in the hereafter].
(Matthew, 12:37)
... We speak as men approved by God to be entrusted with
the Gospel. We are not trying to please men but God, who
tests our hearts. (1 Thessalonians, 2:3-4)
Don't grumble against each other, brothers... (James, 5:9)
With the tongue we praise our Lord... and with it we curse
men... Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My
brothers, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt
water flow from the same spring? My brothers, can a fig
tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt
spring produce fresh water. (James, 3:8-12)
But these men blaspheme in matters they do not under-
stand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born
only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too
will perish. (2 Peter, 2:12)
