@@thekingofsomewhere I think the point isn't which is more obscene, but what is obscene language to begin with. I'm not arguing for one or the other, but I think that understanding what it means for speech to be obscene or corrupt as Ephesians 4 puts it is where the conversation should pivot.
@@thekingofsomewhere i would agree with daniel here, we know in our culture what words are considered taboo so to speak. There are better more edifying words to choose from.
@@thekingofsomewhere An accidental drop of an f-bomb after stubbing your toe or hitting your finger with a hammer is one thing, allowing yourself saying these words and the words like "damn" on a regular basis, is another thing.

But what does "cursing" refer to in the Bible and the verse you just stated? Blessing and cursing...again cursing is applied in that verse as a negative spell being placed on someone and that depends on the words, intent and context by which a word is being used. Cursing is the intent to casting a spell negatively on something or someone, basically to tear someone down or something down...but saying a word like "damn I stubbed my toe"...how is that casting a spell or tearing anything down. There is no intent to demean or demoralize there. The Bible used the word damn as well. So I think it comes down to the intent by which a person uses a word and how it's being applied. I'm not saying to start using words we call curse words because yes, most people are saying it to demean someone else and so there is a fine line here on using it innocently vs negatively but this is a topic we should think more about in general instead of bashing or wrongfully judging each other as we some times do as Christians. We should watch our heart and be mindful of the intent we have, be mindful of others and the offense that may be caused, be mindful of our motive, etc to make sure we aren't using words to tear someone down...i.e., cursing them. But if someone says a word in a non-derogatory way, we need to have room for grace is all I am saying as believers. the only real mentioned swear in the Bible is using God's name in vain.
The words are not inherently evil. The reason most Christians are taught not to is to be "set apart." Most Christians forget this applies to not only swear words though. This applies to most things said in anger or even gossiping. It's more to teach people to think about what they say and to recognize that what you say can affect your testimony.
@@TallGlass-fh8qf Right, because these words are often used to degrade (or "curse" people. (D*** you, F*** you, you're a POS, you're being an a**, etc). But these words also have use in contexts which are not cursing anyone.
@@jncon8013Exactly, such as damned or ass, in which damned is not necessarily a swear word, and ass is a name of a donkey. However, there are many other words that are still swear words no matter what way you use them. Also, the aforementioned words can still be used as swear words.
@@cxarhomell5867 I think most all of them have usages which are not in the context of cursing, though probably not all. I’m not cursing if I say bitch in reference to a dog, for instance. I think there is nuance even where the F word is concerned. Using this word out of hatred or anger to someone is obviously much different than this word being used in the passions of the marriage bed.

REPENT AND FOLLOW THE COMMANDMENTS AND LIVE, STUDY KJV BIBLE TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE COMMANDMENTS (GOD AND THE WORDS OF GOD)...don't be distracted nor deceived!...neither religion, nor rosaries, nor sports, nor wealth, nor earthly achievements, nor Vaccinations, nor any tradition can save you!
Swear words are only considered bad because of what the American culture made them to be. Russians have swear words in their language but it is not looked upon as a “sin” and something horribly bad in their culture. Culture plays a really important role in the topic.
yeah i wish people saw sin as withdrawing from God voluntarily by hurting yourself and others instead of living by a bunch of rules that will make God hate you if you dare to break one lol
I've always thought that language matters. It isn't as if saying, "damn it" when you stub your toe is deeply inherently wrong in itself (like a magic spell), but rather referring to damnation in this kind of flippant way represents and undervaluing of what the word means. That may not always correspond directly to a flippant attitude about hell, but it might contribute to such a personal attitude over time and influence the attitude of those around us. Similar arguments would apply to the f bomb. Scatological words just seem generally vulger and childish when used as exclamations. Maybe not explicitly morally wrong, but somewhat juvenile.
“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.” Ephesians 4:29
A lot of words considered "swear words" aren't inherently corrupt. I think this verse would be more fitting if talking about insulting people/putting people down.
Kjv eh? That is the same verse I thought of, but if it is not beneficial avoid the words, and if someone else uses them unless it's to curse God don't correct them.
Not using swearwords is a small way that we separate ourselves from the rest of the world and let the light shine though. I've had people actually notice that you're not using dam and f-bombs whenever something doesn't go your way. Some people take it too far the other way too and consider basically any angry expression as a swearword. I need something besides ouch say when I stub my toe.
Absolutely, I would reference 1 Peter 1:16 where we are to be holy for God is holy and this also includes how we speak. We are to be set apart in our conduct and our language, you nailed it!
I totally agree! There are some people who actually will say God and then dang together; actually missing the point that damn isn't the swear word but saying the Lord's name in vain is
You could argue that cursing when you hurt yourself (like stubbing your toe) shows a lack of self control, which is supposed to be a fruit of the spirit
And who is helped when you control yourself from swearing in an empty room? It's not like the furniture is gonna pick up the bad words. Well, unless you wired everything up to Alexa.
The people who say cursing is evil are the same people that will say things like "bless your heart" as an insult against someone. What's worse: using a word used to describe feces, or using something that should be a blessing to insult someone instead?
Both cases are awfully wrong and that's whataboutism. • Colossians 3:8 - _"But now you must also Rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips."_ • James 1:26 - _"Those who consider themselves Religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless."_ • Ephesians 5:4 - _"Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather Thanksgiving."_ • Ephesians 4:29 - _"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is Helpful for Building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."_ • James 2:10-12 - _"He Who Said: you shall not commit adultery, also Said: you shall not murder. If you do not commit one but do commit the other, you have become a lawbreaker. Speak and act as those who are going to be Judged by the Law that Gives Freedom."_ • 1 Peter 3:10 - _"Whoever would Love life and see Good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech."_ • James 3:10 - _"Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this ought not be. James 3:12 - _"Can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water."_ • Romans 12:2 - _"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be Transformed by the Renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what GOD’s Will is-His Good, Pleasing and Perfect Will."_
@@PureCurebyFaithI get it, I really do, but you 're just taking these verses and applying them to your own personal views on this subject and how you want everyone to act around you. This topic is not all black and white. There's a lot of morally grey when it comes to words and what people say. I believe its how you use them. Me and my friends will be messing around and we say stuff to one another that can make other people mad but for us it make us laugh and cheerful and it strengthen our relationship. But when I say I'm gonna F8*king kill you out of anger at someone I don't know that's wrong, It's wrong to say that say that to someone you love as well. even if I say that to someone I don't know as a Joke it's not vary appropriate because how am I supposed to know they wont take offense of the word. There Is know point for anyone to be that unhinged or use such idol speech around people you don't know. But I believe taking the lord's name is vain is wrong which is why I've recently stopped doing cuz I believe that the commandment is pretty black and white. I just watch what I say around people I don't know that well. At the end of the day it what's in your heart that drives what come out of your mouth. and god ultimately knows why you say stuff and he give the discernment for that stuff. I know when I have said something wrong to someone or when I've said stuff that was cringe and inappropriate around people. trust me God will make it known to you.
Thats correcting this is not up to conviction. Cursing is of the world and for that reason it looks worldly. I cursed a lot before I got saved, but when I got saved the Spirit cleaned all that up.
@@AaronGeller FILTH'Y, adjective 1. Dirty; foul; unclean; nasty. 2. Polluted; defiled by sinful practices; morally impure. He that is filthy let him be filthy still. Revelation 22:11.
I think it has more to do with the emotion it’s invoking from you. If I swear in frustration even when alone, it’s not edifying to my soul to do so. It leaves me feeling worse than if I just forgave, or moved on without cursing.
👩🏻💭"Why can't you just start praying instead"? Something like...🙏Jesus help me! I even find myself saying a lot Lord Jesus help me not to curse! The holy powerful name of the Lord Jesus Christ is truly POWERFUL. I started to change years ago when I found out what goes on in the most horrible place anywhere in the world,Hell. They non-stop curse and curse and curse and curse and curse. It is every horrible bad word there is. I decided I don't want to be a part of it. I decided I don't want to offend God. In holy heaven everything is clean and beautiful and no one there curses. The souls that are allowed to enter there know better and they have no desire to curse. Us humans need the GRACE of God not to curse. That F-word is the worst!! Those horrible and evil filthy demons and devils GLOAT when they hear any of us humans use that word. It causes them great GREAT PLEASURE. So start trying your very best not to curse. I have given you some hints to help you. God bless you and start today.
As someone who admittedly cusses myself sometimes, I have heard another Christian on YT use the argument that swear words are an attempt to fit in with the world. Also, wouldn’t swear words fit under the category of unwholesome speech?
@Tuna Sandwich To be fair though, Jesus uses the word Raca during the sermon on the mound, and my gut instinct tells me that that was probably a swearword. It may depend on the contacts after all. Then again, if the Holy Spirit is convicting you for using foul language, then it’s just like someone who struggles with alcohol. It’s best just not to do it at all.
We are told to avoid foul language in Ephesians, and James's discourse on tongues and taming of the tongue would indicate there is something wrong with being not in control of the kind of language you use and might point to deeper problems, primarily though I think it comes down to not being a stumbling block, Christians are supposed to act in a moral and upright manner and in this culture one of the easiest ways of doing so is to refrain from unnecessary crudeness, that said its not a violation of the ten commandments if you do mess up or if you feel the need to use an occasional course word.
Interesting to note that all cultures have words that are considered “profanity” Inherently he’s right they aren’t wrong but I’m certain contexts they are to the community, so it’s best not to use them, especially when thinking about not want to be stumbling blocks to unbelievers as well as brethren.
Notice Eph 4:29 says “what is good for necessary edification,” which supports the point I make in the video. Corrupt language tears down. Swear words do not necessarily do that, it’s how you use them: to corrupt or edify.
Not to sound pharisaical, but I want to live beyond reproach. To me it’s not a matter of can I or can’t I, but how can I best represent God and not be of this world. I gave up that kind of language when I got saved and won’t go back even if someone says it’s okay. Sorry.
For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. - Mark 9:49 Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. - Colossians 4:6 Amen! At least someone reads their Bible.
That's commendable, but the problem with "swear words" is that they vary from one place to the next. What you think of as a swear word isn't one to someone else, so the words themselves are rather meaningless. However, if one is intending to be offensive or grotesque, then there is the problem.
“Conversation” in the King James is another word for “conduct” or “behavior”. Forgive me if you already knew that, but I think it’s important to point out in this discussion. Of course, speech can fall into conduct, but that’s not what Peter’s talking about specifically!
Holy does not mean avoiding vulgar words, it is about using them at the right time and for the right purposes. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
Why do you the mere utterance of a word is somehow evil? Do you believe in they are like spells? I have stated in the video the context and how they are used matters and what them bad, it is not about the words themselves.
@@InspiringPhilosophy it is not evil. It's simply corrupt communication and unholy manner of conversation. Do you think it's polite to swear? We should not be of this world. Why do you insist that saying bad words is not a sin? Do you think Jesus would have done such things? Foul language can lead to worse things.
I always treat it as a way of exemplifying self control. I also tell people, if you can have enough self control to not swear, even when something happens that may appear to warrant a cuss word, what else could you learn self-control in? I always treat it as a stepping stone to much more menacing and seemingly impossible things to use self control in.
it's wild how awful, christians are at cherry picking verses. we will pick out a sentence, a phrase, a few words to prove a narrative without understanding the entire context of the chapter or book. great video
I completely agree. One thing that irks me is that there are Christians who will never ever ever say a “bad word” but then demean and degrade people with everything they have when the Bible clearly says that “no unwholesome thing shall come out of thy mouth”
Just because some self proclaimed Christians do that doesn’t make it ok to swear also called cursing. Not saying you are saying it is but both swearing/cursing and demeaning/degrading are not ok as a Christian.
God said dont curse people and urself, did he not? Dont disregard things cuz u like doing it cuz ur just ignoring his word. Curse words are not Godly but we all fall short. We need to present ourselves how God sees us and curse words shouldn’t be ok.
@@Yipper64 you don't purposely go around offending people as a Christian with the intent to cause stife... if they are offended due to the gospel the intention is not to cause conflict but to save the lost

@@mrbadway1575 why the KJV bible? They are all translated from the same text. In fact it's better to look over multiple translations. If they say different things, then the Greek has some specific meaning that doesn't translate properly to English, so if you really want to know what it says you gotta do some research. Or you can just take the easy route and act like a singular translation is somehow a 1:1 of the Greek and seek no further. Your choice I guess.
"But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving" Ephesians 5:3-4 "Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them." Ephesians 4:29 It is hard to abstain from talking certain things or making certain jokes but we should make an effort to not speak certain things that do not represent what means to be a christian.
I think you can say good and helpful things with curse words. Like "You just fucking need to stop, and repent." Obviously, as we need to be good examples in most contexts that wouldn't help because *most people* would be less receptive because they think using curse words is inherently bad, and would think that phrase is hypocritical for that reason. But, in a certain context, it could be good. Unnecessary, but good.

i agree that context matters but there are actions that do not represent what means to be a christian. We are supossed to pusuit holy character therefore we should abstain (or at least make an effort) from certain things,don't you agree?
No, I’m not. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
The bible says to not use foul or abusive language in Ephesians 4:29. It also mentions filthiness and course jesting in Ephesians 5:4. I believe cursing falls under these verses. How we talk is important and it reflects Jesus, just like a child's speech reflects a parents. We should be careful how we talk. We are not of the world and shouldn't sound like it.
Correct about obvious cusses, but not for accurate curses. "Damn" is often an appropriate word, when you're calling for the damnation of something which is being useless, or a bad doctrine which deserves rebuke.
@Sean Winters that is true bit most don't use it in that sense. It's just used to express discussed or upset. This makes it foul or abusive language. We are also to avoid the appearance of evil, so even if the word is just considered foul to use (not just because people don't like hearing Christian doctorine, but actually considered cursing) we really shouldn't use it.
@RonJohn63 the word in Greek that is translated into "foul or abusive" is sapros, which means rotted or of poor or bad quality. The greeks used this word to describe things that would cause harm if injested. In the literal sense, the word means putrid. In the figurative sense, it means offensive or injurious. Paul is condemning any use of the faculty of speech that is morally unhealthy [Candlish, Lloyd-Jones], that suggests impure thoughts [Calvin, Candlish, Lloyd-Jones], light views of sin, irreverence towards God, or trifles with serious things [Candlish]. Profanity and obscenity, as well as careless or light speech, profane religious and sacred concepts which results in a nullification of sacred ideas conveyed by language, which is man’s most powerful weapon for influencing the thoughts and lives of his fellows [WBC].
It’s the intention behind what we’re saying more than the actual word. If you stub your toe and say the f word, it’s not a sin, but if you’re berating a store clerk for not having the right shoe size, then it’s definitely a sin. The words you use would be sinful if you were berating someone without using any swear words. ❤
Said Jay Leno, profanity is the sign of a weak mind. I don't like to cuss, try not to, but unpleasant surprises drives me to it. I could do a lot worse.
I think something worth noting is that we should be training our minds to not jump to certain words. Discipline prepares us for when we are vulnerable. So while I agree with you that there’s nothing inherently wrong with the words, it should also be said that this doesn’t give us an excuse to become comfortable with using words that can hurt others.

Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974. 1. Hail Mary, full of Grace Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love) 2. The Lord is with You Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life. 3. Blessed are you among Women Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women. 4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus. 5. Holy Mary, Mother of God Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity. 6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them. Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death." This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession. As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross. (John 19:26-27) The Hail Mary is throughly rooted in Scripture. The question isn't where is the Holy Rosary in Holy Scripture? That's not the question. The question is where is Holy Scripture in the Holy Rosary. The answer, everywhere. You can follow along on TH-cam, type Holy Rosary and the day of the week.

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15). In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two. Matthew 15:3 - He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?” Matthew 15:6 - So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God. Matthew 15:9 - In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Matthew 16:23 - But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33). Mark 7:8-9, 13 - “You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.” 1 Corinthians 2:13 - And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit. Galatians 1:9-12 - As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:8 - See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 - And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. 1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness. The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself. When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting. 1 Corinthians 11:2 - I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 - So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. 2 Thessalonians 3:6 - Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us. 2 Peter 2:21 - For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
I disagree. In my view, context does matter a lot, but we can’t escape the fact that some words just have a crude/obcene definition (related to fornication, bodily fluids and etc), and using them would go against Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 15:18-20 and Paul’s instructions in Ephesians 5:4. Either way, really like your videos man, God bless you! ✝️
wait til you hear what Paul actually said in in Philippians 3:8 But even beyond that, I consider everything a loss in comparison with the superior value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have lost everything for him, but what I lost I think of as sewer trash (skubala), so that I might gain Christ look up what skubala is
@@duckymomo7935 Hey man. I looked “skubala” up, but turns out it is not a swear word at all (it doesn’t even mean “poop”). There is a scholar called Gary Manning Jr., and this is what he found out: “I did a search of two exhaustive databases of ancient Greek literature (Perseus and Thesaurus Linguae Graecae) to see if σκύβαλα functions as a swear word in Greek. I discovered that nowhere in all of ancient Greek literature is there a clear example of σκύβαλα functioning as a swear word or even as a rude word”. The evidence being it was widely used in a lot of medical and philosophical documents of the time. But there’s more… After analyzing old papyri, he also discovered that it might’ve even had a different meaning than we think it had: meaning “waste” (all kinds of waste) instead of dung. Check out his work, I’ll link it here. God bless ya brother, have a good day!

Words are powerful and it is important to watch what you are saying...for God spoke and it came to be. Its not what you put into your body that defiles you but what comes out that defiles you. ❤
For me, context matters, and a practice of self discipline matters. We ought to not act on the desire to use vulgar language, and our language is a manifestation of where our heart and mind is. When I swear, what is the context? Usually pain, anger or some form of frustration, which we tend to justify. However, who is offering that justification? Not the Lord. In short, we should never intentionally use vulgarity of any kind, and if we impulsively do so, correct it just as quickly. Exercise self control over the natural man in all things. I am still working on that with food and swearing.
The Bible does say let no unwholesome speech proceed from your lips, and the Didache very explicitly condemns profanity itself. The problem with profanity isn't that it casts spells or curses, which is absolutely silly. The problem with profanity is that it alienates the Holy Spirit from the Tabernacle of our hearts, his dwelling place. For from the treasures of the heart the mouth speaks.
@@littlesherlock2313 negative, its letterally all perverse speech. Check out James Chapter 3, even the brother of Jesus Christ says bad speech is contrary to living as a christian.
@@joshuav4596 after reading James 3, it seems clear to me that he’s talking about using your words to insult other people. Verse 10 “from the same mouth comes blessing and cursing.” He doesn’t mean cursing in the sense of saying “curse” words, he means literally cursing others, insulting them. “Cursing” was not used to mean using “curse” words until modern times. I think this passage condemns insults, gossip, slander, calls to unjust actions, belittling speech, lies, dirty jokes, blasphemy, and any other way we use our mouths to demean others or offend God. No singular word is inherently evil, it’s all about the meaning and intent of our words.
Dude, even people in the world agree that explicit language is corrupt. That's why it's censored or a warning is issued on TV shows and music. I'd never stub my toe and let out a loud F-bomb in front of children.
Of course, if you’re around a bunch of kids, you’ll do everything in your power not to say anything worse than “aw! Fiddlesticks!” But what if you’re completely alone, and you stub your toe on a corner while going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. In that case, I don’t think it’s inherently wrong to swear, especially since studies have shown that swear words actually help to reduce physical pain.
@@Sixty_Five_PronghornConsidering the fact that swear words are disrespectful, and that God is always watching what you do and always hears what you say, then it is not particularly good to swear even when you're not around people.
3 Points from a linguist: 1. The principle that says, “If it’s not sin, it’s ok” is not Biblical. Scripture leads Christians to do more than not sin, but to actively do good. 2. Words are culturally defined within a community, thus despite the arbitrary nature of language meaning, you cannot as a single or small group strip words of their negative cultural associations. This means certain words with strong negative associations should be treated as relatively fixed independent of use or context. 3. Considering 1 and 2 above, actively following Biblical instruction will result in speech without curse words. Correct cultural representation of Christ in a secular society warrants the removal of cursing from vocabulary. That they are not sinful to use does not alone warrant their use. The only exception is referring to the words for quotations or examples.
As someone who studied linguistics casually, what do you mean when you say that meanings of words are arbitrary? Genuinely curious, regardless of the larger conversation.
@@fiery_hunter3271 Hey, a real question, refreshing. Thank you! The arbitrary nature of language refers to the lack of necessary connection between the symbols that make a word and the words given meaning. For example, there is nothing about the symbols c a r in “car” that necessarily connect to what we associate with “car.” The symbol is culturally assigned to its meaning. So if someone were not aware of the meaning beforehand, nothing about “car” allows that person to infer the ideas associated with “car.” That is arbitrariness. As a contrast, if we switch from language to an alternative symbol system like pictograms, the connections between the symbols and their respective meanings are abstract but not arbitrary. There is typically a design strategy to ensure the symbol visually resembles what it means, thus communicating without arbitrariness. This pictogram for example,♿️, resembles a wheelchair, and anyone who has had a background with a wheelchair should be able to visually decipher the symbol without any extra learning step, the visual knowledge from the experience is enough. Because of the visual nature of the symbol being truly connected to what it means through having similar visual features, the symbol is not arbitrary. Hope this helps!
I’ve always made this argument since I was young, even without biblical context. I 100% agree with you, I even had this conversation with my pastor and he agreed. As you said, and as stated in Corinthians, just basically be aware of your surroundings and don’t use swear words as a means of demonization as that is where it’s perceived as negative.
For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. - Mark 9:49 Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. - Colossians 4:6 smh.
@@RoninXCVII Colossians 3:8 says to put away filthy communication which puts swearing in that category we can't expect to be called Christians and walking with Christ and also swearing at the same time it just doesn't work if Jesus was right next to you do you think He would approve?
@@nelsondavila9072 I agree with what you’re saying. But think of it this way, what we consider swear words are words we were taught were bad. Realistically they’re just words, and we’re just giving power to a word that in a non hurtful context is just another word. That’s how I view it. Granted if we want to just say they’re bad altogether then it’s no different from lusting after a woman/man, killing, theft, etc. because a sin is a sin. I get that it says don’t use filthy language, but what that language is, is up to interpretation based on the times. Using what we know as the common swear words today aren’t that filthy when used as any other passive word.
@@RoninXCVIIswearing in its proper context is a language based on insults, negative thinking/thoughts, or corruption on proper English language it's impossible to try to edify grace to people with the use of swearing

The Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth* (True devotion to Mary) Revelation 12:1 *Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible. Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974. 1. Hail Mary, full of Grace Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love) 2. The Lord is with You Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life. 3. Blessed are you among Women Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women. 4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus. 5. Holy Mary, Mother of God Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity. 6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them. Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death." This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession. As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross. (John 19:26-27) The Hail Mary is throughly rooted in Scripture. The question isn't where is the Holy Rosary in Holy Scripture? That's not the question. The question is where is Holy Scripture in the Holy Rosary. The answer, everywhere. You can follow along on TH-cam, type Holy Rosary and the day of the week. Example, Holy Rosary Wednesday and you'll get the Glorious Mysteries. Peace be with you. ⚜️ Ave Maria
@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15). In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two. Matthew 15:3 - He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?” Matthew 15:6 - So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God. Matthew 15:9 - In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Matthew 16:23 - But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33). Mark 7:8-9, 13 - “You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.” 1 Corinthians 2:13 - And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit. Galatians 1:9-12 - As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:8 - See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 - And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. 1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness. The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself. When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word.

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 I don't think that swearing would bring glory to God. And what would Jesus do? Because we ought to be like Him.
@@Ghatius reading a fantasy book, playing a game and watching a movie is a waste of your time, which God has give you to spend it for Him and with Him. 5 minutes in the eternity, and you will be mourning that you spent so much time on yourself, and that you should've sacrificed more. Christ has given everything for you. Do the same. You will spend eternity with God, do you really want to spend your time only on yourself right now? Isn't it selfish? Now, please read a small article by John Piper, called "How to drink orange juice to the glory of God". It's great. When I asked two weeks ago “Is the doctrine of total depravity biblical?” my answer was yes. And one thing I meant was that all of our actions apart from saving grace are morally ruined. In other words, everything an unbeliever does is sinful and thus unacceptable to God. I said that one of my reasons for believing this comes from 1 Corinthians 10:31: “Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” I asked, “Is it sin to disobey this biblical commandment?” Yes. So, I draw this somber conclusion: it is sin to eat or drink or do anything not for the glory of God. In other words, sin is not just a list of harmful things (killing, stealing, etc). Sin is leaving God out of account in the ordinary affairs of your life; sin is anything you do that you don’t do for the glory of God. But what do unbelievers do for the glory of God? Nothing. Therefore, everything they do is sinful. That is what I mean by saying that, apart from saving grace, all we do is morally ruined. Believe and Know Some of you then asked the practical question: Well, how do you “eat and drink” to the glory of God - say, orange juice for breakfast? One answer is found in 1 Timothy 4:3-5: [Some] forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer. Orange juice was “to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.” Therefore, unbelievers cannot use orange juice for the purpose God intended - namely, as an occasion for heartfelt gratitude to God from a true heart of faith. But believers can, and this is how they glorify God. Their drinking orange juice “is made holy by the word of God and prayer.” The word of God teaches us that the juice, and even our strength to drink it, is a free gift of God (1 Corinthians 4:7; 1 Peter 4:11). The prayer is our humble response of thanks from the heart. Believing this truth in the word and offering thanks in prayer is one way we drink orange juice to the glory of God. Drink in Love The other way is to drink lovingly. For example, don’t insist on the biggest helping. This is taught in the context of 1 Corinthians 10:33-11:1: “I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved. Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.” Everything we do - even drinking orange juice - can be done with the intention and hope that it will be to the advantage of many, that they may be saved. Let us praise God that we have escaped, by his grace, from the total ruin of all our deeds. And let us do everything, whether we eat or drink, to the glory of our great God! So, there are no such things that don't "disglory" God.
Yes. This is totally true. My first (and last) relationship was with an amazing guy who I still love who had the tendency to swear. We were both Christian's and we actually met because I gave occasional messages at our youth group and he was on the worship team. So that really threw me. His family kinda helped me understand this whole idea better. But you have to still be careful and use it in moderation. It was so unfamiliar to me that it started really slow and when I was more comfortable with the idea... it wasn't healthy for me. For some people it might be fine. For me it was not. Context and individual discernment is necessary. ♥️
On the fence. As outlined in your example, context is everything I think. I noticed that I felt like a fool giving full vent to my anger when I started cussing. Great vid
It is about how you direct it and use it. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.

@@InspiringPhilosophy thanks for the response. Maybe on the fence isn’t the right phrase. I think it’s pretty clear that God didn’t exactly stop at dirty slut when talking about Israel in Hosea. Perhaps there is no need for me to point out other sinful contexts for harsh language since that’s not the point of this video. I think there’s some wisdom buried beneath the overly puritanical rule. I really concerned my dad with some lyrics I wrote once where I never actually cussed but I still write from time to time and speak in aggressive ways that makes me put probably way too much thought into this.

Why do we want to curse? To be friends with the world? Just because it feels so good sometimes and scratches a certain deep itch, when at other times convicting us? The first sounds like worldliness, the second fleshliness

I helped lead a teen youth group for nearly a decade, on more than one occasion I said to a teen “listen here dipstick” to make sure I had their undivided attention so I could speak to them regarding their language and general behavior. If I hadn’t called them a dipstick, they would have brushed me off and ignored whatever it was that I said in regards to their language or behavior.
@InspiringPhilosophy What does this verse mean? “Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.” Ephesians 4:29
@@yaboiij6694 The answer is right in the next chapter of Ephesians. Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person-such a person is an idolater-has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient. Ephesians 5:1-6

This reminded me of something my pastor said in church a few weeks ago. She said she went to a funeral and a friend of the deceased wanted to say prayer and so she stepped aside and he gave one of the most curse filled prayers she ever heard, but it came from his heart and he was just using his natural vernacular with God. She thought it was a little funny but reported that it was a beautiful prayer sending his dear friend off to heaven and she loved hearing what he had to say. You see, God hears every word you say and thought you think, and we forget that WHEN he hears it isn’t important because he still hears it either way. There isn’t a specific way we have to pray, it’s just talking to God you know?
For the longest time there was a form of swearing that Jesus actually _did_ warn against, that being swearing on religious artifacts, the temple, or God Himself. I believe in Quebec they still have a swear word "Tabernac" referring to the Tabernacle. It's only really recently that swearing has referred to words for poop, genitals, sex, or derogatory words for women and other races.

Jesus states something like this in the Bible, Do not use filthy language. What Jesus is referencing is that christians are supposed to speak wisdom every time they speak so that when they speak anyone who is listening can learn and grow.

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15). In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two. Matthew 15:3 - He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?” Matthew 15:6 - So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God. Matthew 15:9 - In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Matthew 16:23 - But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33). Mark 7:8-9, 13 - “You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.” 1 Corinthians 2:13 - And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit. Galatians 1:9-12 - As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:8 - See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 - And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. 1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness. The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself. When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting. 1 Corinthians 11:2 - I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 - So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. 2 Thessalonians 3:6 - Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us. 2 Peter 2:21 - For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.

I see the point you are making, but what about the scriptures Mark 7:20, and Ephesians 4:29? These scriptures tell us that what comes out of our mouths matter, and to not let any unwholesome talk come out of our mouths as well. Is it possible that unwholesome talk could be what we hold as culturally inappropriate today? If not, then how so?
I agree, however I would also say that to use swear words casually, even without malicious intent, can make us look too much like the world. Remember, we are to be set apart, and so people should be able to tell us apart. If the worldly people use swear words very casually, I don’t think we should.
We are called to be different/ set apart from the world , like the modern Christian embrace of tattoos it seems like this is another way to justify fitting into the world. Not cussing is the easiest way to stand apart today I don’t see what you gain by being like the unbelievers as much as possible .
Cursing is from hell, period. I even had to be delivered from a spirit of cursing in the beginning of my walk with God, because i was cursing all the times and didnt know why.
God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
@@InspiringPhilosophy I understand pastor Jeff Durbin also uses this argument. I think it depends on the context like Song of Solomon is very sexually explicit but used in a non sinful way while the same story turned into a graphic movie would make it sinful .
I would also add you need to ask how we are called to be different. John 13:35 says we are called to be different by how we love, not because we avoid tattoos or specific words old time conservatives demean are in appropriate. Do not supplement the gospel for man made traditions.

Sorry, but I cannot imagine ANY context in which Jesus or His disciples would call somebody a MFer or say, "Hey my Ni**a". You don't need a specific command from God going over every possible profane word and whether it is okay or not. If even the secular culture recognizes the word as profanity, that should suffice. "Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving" EPHESIANS 5:4
Jesus called pharisees brood of vipers Paul says skubala, which is kinda hard to get around the fact that it is an offensive word, in Philippians 3:8 But even beyond that, I consider everything a loss in comparison with the superior value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have lost everything for him, but what I lost I think of as sewer trash (skubala), so that I might gain Christ
Explain this then: Snakes! Sons of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell? “Therefore, I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers of religious law. But you will kill some by crucifixion, and you will flog others with whips in your synagogues, chasing them from city to city. As a result, you will be held responsible for the murder of all godly people of all time-from the murder of righteous Abel to the murder of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you killed in the Temple between the sanctuary and the altar. Matthew 23:33-35 NLT God himself (Jesus) calls people sons of Vipers and Snakes. I'm pretty sure that this is equivalent of calling someone a son of Satan and Jesus is referring to the story of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit and Satan being there in the form of a snake.
Here he calls people in the Temple as thieves: Then Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out the people selling animals for sacrifices. He said to them, “The Scriptures declare, ‘My Temple will be a house of prayer,’ but you have turned it into a den of thieves.” Luke 19:45-46 NLT
@@debrazickefoose8125 1 Corinthians 8 He’s pretty much saying that Christians using cool curse words maturely in context is the same as the church of Corinth understanding the fulfillment of the Old Testament through Christ lol Isaiah 57 Isaiah is a prophet quoting the exact words from God. We are not God. God is the only perfect and holy being that holds the right to curse anything. That’s the point. He’s saying our idle, in context, mature cursing, is justified by the example of God’s Holy Judgement and rebuke lol Lastly just off the top of my head I think I know at least seven verses that warns us about the dangers of the words that come out of our mouth. What he’s saying is not consistent with the Bible

I agree completely with what he’s saying. Remember your speech is from the heart. A hardened heart uses hatred to explain. It’s not the word used but the intent.
People using the F word, the S word and the C word, cause REAL problems for me. They show that they don't care for other people's feelings. Worse still, that they may actively *rebuke* your objection to their offending of you. There is never a justifiable reason to use such terms - ever. I find that those words "chip away" at the fabric of my moral integrity and lessen my devotion to GOD in the process.
You are assuming there is another person present. (You are also assuming the other person isn't a Marine and even noticed the terms were used.) For you, those terms may always be wrong, just like taking a drink as an alcoholic can always be wrong. That doesn't mean that's true for everyone. -A Marine
@@acem82 If you're suggesting the use of such terms as coping mechanisms for traumatic situations is in any sense justified, then, indirectly, no. I can understand such words not being used maliciously or out of a foul set of circumstances - if my understanding of what you're getting at is correct?? What i mean when I say that it's bad *indirectly,* is that purposefully putting oneself at risk of suffering trauma to bring on such responses, is what's bad. Is trauma what you are eluding to?
I wouldn't take those curse words to heart. Where I'm from, friends often refer to each other as ni**a. Some people who aren't from that culture or doesn't understand the context may get upset but the intention isn't meant to upset anyone. That's just a comfortable way for many people to talk. If hearing curse words causes you this much distress, than perhaps it isn't the words that is an issue. Maybe you should reflect on why these words causes you such distress. I'm praying for you. 🙏
I sort of see your point on a few of those but the S word could be a bit more of a discussion if used in a polemic, one could argue that 1 Corinthians 4:13 a more accurate word in an English translation than "Scum" would be the S word as it fulfils the same role in Greek as harsh and was mostly uses to describe waste specifically human fecal product. I don't think any word should be abused but I think a tactical use of any of those words for polemic purposes can be appropriate for Christians depending on circumstances.
@@wakkablockablaw6025 thank you very much for your prayers, I would like to return the gesture if that's okay with you :) There's no "taking to heart" of such terms, they can merely be being said on television or in the background for instance, with the full awareness that they're not intended to be meant for me. The thing is, I'm very sensitive to the effects of such things - words spoken/written down, even bad behaviours that others - or even I - might commit. Perhaps you might call it the armour of GOD that I'm not wearing as comprehensively as I could??? My solution to these problems, is manual labor. Doing GOD's work, as it were.
From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks luke 6:45 if you have bitterness in your heart it's going to come out of your mouth that's the bottom line.
It's talking about purposely insulting others. Letting your mouth speaks while the heart is not at present to put someone down to put yourself on top of others.
@@ShadowBoyDTE you don't make any sense at all. Are you coherent? The heart is the center of your soul it is where you store and process info. Both your good and evil, if you speak it always comes frim the heart! So if you are angry and bitter you curse both God and man.
I'd love to see someone learned as yourself do a deeper dive into the commandment: Thou shall not use the Lord's name in vane. Because most modern people translate that into saying "jeebus" or "GD". and I don't think that's right.
Heiser gets into this actually. his view is that it's not about cussing at all. It's about claiming to follow Yahweh (to bear his name) and then go off worshipping Ba'al on the weekends, or doing child sacrifices, things that Yahweh clearly hates.
God told Moses His name is I Am and Jesus confirmed that this is His name. Vain means meaningless, unsuccessful, useless, etc. Whenever you say “I Am” or it’s nickname “I’m” be very mindful of what you say after that!
While it is true that people use the name of Jesus or God to express surprise and whatnot way too easily, we must not go into the opposite extreme of not using them at all. I see Christians on TH-cam and other platforms straight up censoring the word God. Like idk, "Thank G-d that...". Guys stop! This looks more like what an atheist would do than anything else! It doesn't at all look like trying to avoid taking the Lord's name in vain. It seems like the opposite, being embarrassed to say the name Jesus or God, or censoring it because you despise it. I'm very serious about this. People normally only censor the words they deem inappropriate.
Whore, damn, and bastard are all used in the bible. Cussing is bad, but using a word such as whore, damn and bastard might be considered a cuss, but it’s meant to be offensive and effective. That’s why the bible uses them.
There is an element of separation here that is pinnacle. Why would we match the world’s vulgarity? When it comes to proceedings from the mouth. Let it be holy. Neither vulgarities nor deeming shouting “raca” upon a brother or enemy is holy.
@@Mayan_88694 Says who? You? Good thing you are not my standard of morality. Harsh language is not the same as swear words. If the Holy Spirit does not convict you of this, instead you make TH-cam video justifying this, maybe you do not have the Holy Spirit. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. Luke 6:45 This is the problem with western Christianity / Protestantism. They tend to intellectualize everything.
"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear" (Eph 4:29). I think we need to be very careful, especially when it can cause our brother to stumble.
To flippantly use the notion of damnation is certainly blasphemous. It is literally (verbally) an insult to God's omnipotence. Same with GD, "Christ's sake," exclaiming "Jesus" as a cuss word. All of these and those similar are using God's name in vain. A literal commandment. As for other profanity: Ephesians 4:29, 5:4 Matthew 12:36 James 3:10 Matthew 15:10 Guard your tongue brothers.
"Bless, dont curse" - is what a Christian attitude and inner nature suppose to be. So using a bad word like "damn" is not appropriate. We should try not to not damn anything. Now can it slip out from your mouth in a bad moment, yes it can but we should repent from it right away. Otherwise, i do agree that the context in needed. Sometimes a bad word is actually the only way to describe the reality, like the "whore of Babylon", that city truly is best described as a whore, that is what it is, so in this context, you are not cursing or diminishing anybody, you are stating a fact.
Agree 💯 Just as the word says we are not to partake with the acts or things of this world. So if you know God will not use it DONT you use it. He says be Holy for I am Holy.

The Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth* (True devotion to Mary) Revelation 12:1 *Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible. Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974. 1. Hail Mary, full of Grace Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love) 2. The Lord is with You Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life. 3. Blessed are you among Women Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women. 4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus. 5. Holy Mary, Mother of God Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity. 6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them. Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death."

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15). In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two. Matthew 15:3 - He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?” Matthew 15:6 - So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God. Matthew 15:9 - In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.” Matthew 16:23 - But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33). Mark 7:8-9, 13 - “You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.” 1 Corinthians 2:13 - And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit. Galatians 1:9-12 - As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:8 - See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 - And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. 1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness. The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself. When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting. 1 Corinthians 11:2 - I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 - So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. 2 Thessalonians 3:6 - Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us. 2 Peter 2:21 - For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
First let me say I enjoy your work. And I agree it is circumstances that give the words context. But why curse while stubbing your toe? Evoking a curse, there is more happening than you think. I'm not talking about witchcraft or anything, but the anger coming from you. When Jesus tells the pharisees "out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks" (Matthew 12) he is referring to their hypocrisy, but just that truth should make us think about how we speak... It reveals our heart. And we should honor God with our speech, Colossians 4:6 "let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt..." that's mostly for the unbeliever, but again there is something about restraining the tongue (James 3) And finally I would view cursing as a perversion of speech, Proverbs 8:13 "The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate." Ultimately "there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" Romans 8... so feel free to curse lol but is it wise? This is just food for thought. Thanks for everything you do, I get a lot out of your channel.
@@hydepark1382 and I agree with his premise at the beginning, not batting an eye tearing someone down with name calling, but getting outraged at cursing.
I do hope folks can understand he is not saying Christians can go around “swearing.” His answer to this question is well thought out and applicable to the topic of language, its use, its context and the intentions behind it.
Try getting my 71 year old mother to realize that lol... I've been trying to make this argument to her for a looooooooooong time. I dont usually swear unless I get very angry, and I usually feel bad about it afterward, but the swear words of today some didnt even exist back then. I think a "bad" word is a word used to hurt someone, or make them feel badly.
My thoughts exactly!!! Thank you!!! I don’t see swear words as being evil at all, but only how you use the word itself. Swear words are not offensive to me and I don’t cringe when I hear others speak them People can call someone a fat ugly hog & not swear & I deem that as being more offensive than someone saying damn after a making a mistake.

@@thekingofsomewhere I think the point isn't which is more obscene, but what is obscene language to begin with. I'm not arguing for one or the other, but I think that understanding what it means for speech to be obscene or corrupt as Ephesians 4 puts it is where the conversation should pivot.
@@thekingofsomewhere i would agree with daniel here, we know in our culture what words are considered taboo so to speak. There are better more edifying words to choose from.
@@thekingofsomewhere
An accidental drop of an f-bomb after stubbing your toe or hitting your finger with a hammer is one thing, allowing yourself saying these words and the words like "damn" on a regular basis, is another thing.
For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. - Mark 9:49
Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. - Colossians 4:6
"Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be." -James 3:10

Read James 5:12 too
Proverbs 10:31 and32 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom but the Forward tongue Shall be cut off The lips of the Righteous know what is Acceptable But the mouth of the wicked speaketh Forwardness
But what does "cursing" refer to in the Bible and the verse you just stated? Blessing and cursing...again cursing is applied in that verse as a negative spell being placed on someone and that depends on the words, intent and context by which a word is being used. Cursing is the intent to casting a spell negatively on something or someone, basically to tear someone down or something down...but saying a word like "damn I stubbed my toe"...how is that casting a spell or tearing anything down. There is no intent to demean or demoralize there. The Bible used the word damn as well. So I think it comes down to the intent by which a person uses a word and how it's being applied. I'm not saying to start using words we call curse words because yes, most people are saying it to demean someone else and so there is a fine line here on using it innocently vs negatively but this is a topic we should think more about in general instead of bashing or wrongfully judging each other as we some times do as Christians. We should watch our heart and be mindful of the intent we have, be mindful of others and the offense that may be caused, be mindful of our motive, etc to make sure we aren't using words to tear someone down...i.e., cursing them. But if someone says a word in a non-derogatory way, we need to have room for grace is all I am saying as believers. the only real mentioned swear in the Bible is using God's name in vain.
Everyone swears at some point in their lives.

The words are not inherently evil. The reason most Christians are taught not to is to be "set apart." Most Christians forget this applies to not only swear words though. This applies to most things said in anger or even gossiping. It's more to teach people to think about what they say and to recognize that what you say can affect your testimony.
Especially the words cringe and noob
Curse words are inherently evil. There is a reason the action or practice is called “cursing.”
@@TallGlass-fh8qf Right, because these words are often used to degrade (or "curse" people. (D*** you, F*** you, you're a POS, you're being an a**, etc). But these words also have use in contexts which are not cursing anyone.
@@jncon8013Exactly, such as damned or ass, in which damned is not necessarily a swear word, and ass is a name of a donkey. However, there are many other words that are still swear words no matter what way you use them. Also, the aforementioned words can still be used as swear words.
@@cxarhomell5867 I think most all of them have usages which are not in the context of cursing, though probably not all. I’m not cursing if I say bitch in reference to a dog, for instance.

Using this word out of hatred or anger to someone is obviously much different than this word being used in the passions of the marriage bed.

I've always thought that language matters. It isn't as if saying, "damn it" when you stub your toe is deeply inherently wrong in itself (like a magic spell), but rather referring to damnation in this kind of flippant way represents and undervaluing of what the word means. That may not always correspond directly to a flippant attitude about hell, but it might contribute to such a personal attitude over time and influence the attitude of those around us. Similar arguments would apply to the f bomb.
Scatological words just seem generally vulger and childish when used as exclamations. Maybe not explicitly morally wrong, but somewhat juvenile.
Always say like dam like as in Beaver dam
“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.”
Ephesians 4:29
Exactly, curse words aren't inherently corrupt
A lot of words considered "swear words" aren't inherently corrupt.
I think this verse would be more fitting if talking about insulting people/putting people down.
Gonna post this 🔥
Watch the clip again.
Kjv eh? That is the same verse I thought of, but if it is not beneficial avoid the words, and if someone else uses them unless it's to curse God don't correct them.
Not using swearwords is a small way that we separate ourselves from the rest of the world and let the light shine though. I've had people actually notice that you're not using dam and f-bombs whenever something doesn't go your way. Some people take it too far the other way too and consider basically any angry expression as a swearword. I need something besides ouch say when I stub my toe.
100% agree
Absolutely, I would reference 1 Peter 1:16 where we are to be holy for God is holy and this also includes how we speak. We are to be set apart in our conduct and our language, you nailed it!
@Max Mullets Damn depends. To say, "without Jesus we are damned" is true, but "damn you!", that's pretty bad.
I totally agree! There are some people who actually will say God and then dang together; actually missing the point that damn isn't the swear word but saying the Lord's name in vain is
That'll change when you leave highschool.
You could argue that cursing when you hurt yourself (like stubbing your toe) shows a lack of self control, which is supposed to be a fruit of the spirit
And who is helped when you control yourself from swearing in an empty room? It's not like the furniture is gonna pick up the bad words. Well, unless you wired everything up to Alexa.
The people who say cursing is evil are the same people that will say things like "bless your heart" as an insult against someone. What's worse: using a word used to describe feces, or using something that should be a blessing to insult someone instead?

@@PureCurebyFaithI get it, I really do, but you 're just taking these verses and applying them to your own personal views on this subject and how you want everyone to act around you. This topic is not all black and white. There's a lot of morally grey when it comes to words and what people say. I believe its how you use them. Me and my friends will be messing around and we say stuff to one another that can make other people mad but for us it make us laugh and cheerful and it strengthen our relationship. But when I say I'm gonna F8*king kill you out of anger at someone I don't know that's wrong, It's wrong to say that say that to someone you love as well. even if I say that to someone I don't know as a Joke it's not vary appropriate because how am I supposed to know they wont take offense of the word. There Is know point for anyone to be that unhinged or use such idol speech around people you don't know. But I believe taking the lord's name is vain is wrong which is why I've recently stopped doing cuz I believe that the commandment is pretty black and white. I just watch what I say around people I don't know that well. At the end of the day it what's in your heart that drives what come out of your mouth. and god ultimately knows why you say stuff and he give the discernment for that stuff. I know when I have said something wrong to someone or when I've said stuff that was cringe and inappropriate around people. trust me God will make it known to you.
What comes from the mouth flows from the heart. We should keep negative words far from us to speak life into one another.
But what is negative about the f bomb?
@@scrubhd6530 what isn't?
Know that all things are permitted but not all things are beneficial.
Colossians 3:8, don’t use filthy communication. For me, it’s easy to see that swear words fall into this category.
Thats correcting this is not up to conviction. Cursing is of the world and for that reason it looks worldly. I cursed a lot before I got saved, but when I got saved the Spirit cleaned all that up.
fart and poop can be "filthy" words but yet we do it every day
@@AaronGeller
FILTH'Y, adjective
1. Dirty; foul; unclean; nasty.
2. Polluted; defiled by sinful practices; morally impure.
He that is filthy let him be filthy still. Revelation 22:11.
@@AaronGeller And you think you're not supposed to keep that to yourself??
@@carloswater7 in many places, people don’t find it so offensive
I think it has more to do with the emotion it’s invoking from you. If I swear in frustration even when alone, it’s not edifying to my soul to do so. It leaves me feeling worse than if I just forgave, or moved on without cursing.
Myth Busters proved that swearing helps with pain management
👩🏻💭"Why can't you just start praying instead"? Something like...🙏Jesus help me!
I even find myself saying a lot Lord Jesus help me not to curse!
The holy powerful name of the Lord Jesus Christ is truly POWERFUL.
I started to change years ago when I found out what goes on in the most horrible place anywhere in the world,Hell. They non-stop curse and curse and curse and curse and curse. It is every horrible bad word there is. I decided I don't want to be a part of it. I decided I don't want to offend God.
In holy heaven everything is clean and beautiful and no one there curses. The souls that are allowed to enter there know better and they have no desire to curse. Us humans need the GRACE of God not to curse. That F-word is the worst!! Those horrible and evil filthy demons and devils GLOAT when they hear any of us humans use that word. It causes them great GREAT PLEASURE.
So start trying your very best not to curse.
I have given you some hints to help you. God bless you and start today.
@@santinasantina2177
I wasn't saying I recommend it, I'm just saying it has an effect.
As someone who admittedly cusses myself sometimes, I have heard another Christian on YT use the argument that swear words are an attempt to fit in with the world. Also, wouldn’t swear words fit under the category of unwholesome speech?
I think it depends on the context.
Exactly unwholesome
@Tuna Sandwich To be fair though, Jesus uses the word Raca during the sermon on the mound, and my gut instinct tells me that that was probably a swearword. It may depend on the contacts after all. Then again, if the Holy Spirit is convicting you for using foul language, then it’s just like someone who struggles with alcohol. It’s best just not to do it at all.
@Tuna Sandwich I thought 'Raca' meant worthless (I searched it up and the versions I have states the English word for it....
This is the thinking of a child.
We are told to avoid foul language in Ephesians, and James's discourse on tongues and taming of the tongue would indicate there is something wrong with being not in control of the kind of language you use and might point to deeper problems, primarily though I think it comes down to not being a stumbling block, Christians are supposed to act in a moral and upright manner and in this culture one of the easiest ways of doing so is to refrain from unnecessary crudeness, that said its not a violation of the ten commandments if you do mess up or if you feel the need to use an occasional course word.
Very well said
I wonder what they considered foul language.
Interesting to note that all cultures have words that are considered “profanity”
Inherently he’s right they aren’t wrong but I’m certain contexts they are to the community, so it’s best not to use them, especially when thinking about not want to be stumbling blocks to unbelievers as well as brethren.
Notice Eph 4:29 says “what is good for necessary edification,” which supports the point I make in the video. Corrupt language tears down. Swear words do not necessarily do that, it’s how you use them: to corrupt or edify.
🤨🤷🏻♂️
It’s a part in the Bible where Paul talks about Christians should have clean mouth
I have a no swearing rule on my livestreams. It's a lifestyle choice for me and my family.
Not to sound pharisaical, but I want to live beyond reproach. To me it’s not a matter of can I or can’t I, but how can I best represent God and not be of this world. I gave up that kind of language when I got saved and won’t go back even if someone says it’s okay. Sorry.
great attitude
For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. - Mark 9:49
Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. - Colossians 4:6
Amen! At least someone reads their Bible.
ditto. i agree with IP with a lotta things, but this one is a bit off.
Yup agreed
That's commendable, but the problem with "swear words" is that they vary from one place to the next.
What you think of as a swear word isn't one to someone else, so the words themselves are rather meaningless. However, if one is intending to be offensive or grotesque, then there is the problem.
Be ye holy in all manner of conversation…
“Conversation” in the King James is another word for “conduct” or “behavior”. Forgive me if you already knew that, but I think it’s important to point out in this discussion. Of course, speech can fall into conduct, but that’s not what Peter’s talking about specifically!
Holy does not mean avoiding vulgar words, it is about using them at the right time and for the right purposes. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
@@InspiringPhilosophy why do you think saying vulgar words such as the F word is morally correct?
Why do you the mere utterance of a word is somehow evil? Do you believe in they are like spells? I have stated in the video the context and how they are used matters and what them bad, it is not about the words themselves.
@@InspiringPhilosophy it is not evil. It's simply corrupt communication and unholy manner of conversation. Do you think it's polite to swear? We should not be of this world. Why do you insist that saying bad words is not a sin? Do you think Jesus would have done such things? Foul language can lead to worse things.
I always treat it as a way of exemplifying self control. I also tell people, if you can have enough self control to not swear, even when something happens that may appear to warrant a cuss word, what else could you learn self-control in? I always treat it as a stepping stone to much more menacing and seemingly impossible things to use self control in.
it's wild how awful, christians are at cherry picking verses. we will pick out a sentence, a phrase, a few words to prove a narrative without understanding the entire context of the chapter or book. great video
I completely agree. One thing that irks me is that there are Christians who will never ever ever say a “bad word” but then demean and degrade people with everything they have when the Bible clearly says that “no unwholesome thing shall come out of thy mouth”
Exactly
Repent you sinners.
Just because some self proclaimed Christians do that doesn’t make it ok to swear also called cursing. Not saying you are saying it is but both swearing/cursing and demeaning/degrading are not ok as a Christian.
God said dont curse people and urself, did he not? Dont disregard things cuz u like doing it cuz ur just ignoring his word. Curse words are not Godly but we all fall short. We need to present ourselves how God sees us and curse words shouldn’t be ok.
Then are they truly Christians?
Cussing is an offense to whom its directed⁹ even in general we must pay account for every idle word
Is offending people a sin?
@@Yipper64 you don't purposely go around offending people as a Christian with the intent to cause stife... if they are offended due to the gospel the intention is not to cause conflict but to save the lost
@@J0e1. Being a christian is going to be offensive to the culture. Sure purposefully offending people, that's sinful because its prideful, and arrogant and such, I understand that. But offending people is just part of being a Christian. Jesus offended so many people, they hung him on a cross.

@@mrbadway1575 why the KJV bible? They are all translated from the same text. In fact it's better to look over multiple translations. If they say different things, then the Greek has some specific meaning that doesn't translate properly to English, so if you really want to know what it says you gotta do some research.
Or you can just take the easy route and act like a singular translation is somehow a 1:1 of the Greek and seek no further. Your choice I guess.
And if you feel convicted as not to cuss, then don’t! It’s better to listen to your convictions…
This is literally how it is. People need to realize this more
"But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving" Ephesians 5:3-4
"Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them." Ephesians 4:29
It is hard to abstain from talking certain things or making certain jokes but we should make an effort to not speak certain things that do not represent what means to be a christian.
I think you can say good and helpful things with curse words. Like "You just fucking need to stop, and repent."
Obviously, as we need to be good examples in most contexts that wouldn't help because *most people* would be less receptive because they think using curse words is inherently bad, and would think that phrase is hypocritical for that reason. But, in a certain context, it could be good. Unnecessary, but good.
Notice Eph 4:29 says “what is good for necessary edification,” which supports the point I make in the video. Corrupt language tears down. Swear words do not necessarily do that, it’s how you use them: to corrupt or edify.
You haven’t read Isaiah or Song of Solomon in it’s culture context have you? They use very explicit language.
i agree that context matters but there are actions that do not represent what means to be a christian.
We are supossed to pusuit holy character therefore we should abstain (or at least make an effort) from certain things,don't you agree?
No, I’m not. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
The bible says to not use foul or abusive language in Ephesians 4:29. It also mentions filthiness and course jesting in Ephesians 5:4. I believe cursing falls under these verses. How we talk is important and it reflects Jesus, just like a child's speech reflects a parents. We should be careful how we talk. We are not of the world and shouldn't sound like it.
Correct about obvious cusses, but not for accurate curses. "Damn" is often an appropriate word, when you're calling for the damnation of something which is being useless, or a bad doctrine which deserves rebuke.
@Sean Winters that is true bit most don't use it in that sense. It's just used to express discussed or upset. This makes it foul or abusive language. We are also to avoid the appearance of evil, so even if the word is just considered foul to use (not just because people don't like hearing Christian doctorine, but actually considered cursing) we really shouldn't use it.
@@SeanWintersI have to admit i had wished my mother damnation for being unforgiving,
"foul or abusive language".
Exactly. _Swear_ words aren't the same as foul language.
@RonJohn63 the word in Greek that is translated into "foul or abusive" is sapros, which means rotted or of poor or bad quality. The greeks used this word to describe things that would cause harm if injested. In the literal sense, the word means putrid. In the figurative sense, it means offensive or injurious. Paul is condemning any use of the faculty of speech that is morally unhealthy [Candlish, Lloyd-Jones], that suggests impure thoughts [Calvin, Candlish, Lloyd-Jones], light views of sin, irreverence towards God, or trifles with serious things [Candlish]. Profanity and obscenity, as well as careless or light speech, profane religious and sacred concepts which results in a nullification of sacred ideas conveyed by language, which is man’s most powerful weapon for influencing the thoughts and lives of his fellows [WBC].
It’s the intention behind what we’re saying more than the actual word. If you stub your toe and say the f word, it’s not a sin, but if you’re berating a store clerk for not having the right shoe size, then it’s definitely a sin. The words you use would be sinful if you were berating someone without using any swear words. ❤
Said Jay Leno, profanity is the sign of a weak mind. I don't like to cuss, try not to, but unpleasant surprises drives me to it. I could do a lot worse.
I think something worth noting is that we should be training our minds to not jump to certain words. Discipline prepares us for when we are vulnerable. So while I agree with you that there’s nothing inherently wrong with the words, it should also be said that this doesn’t give us an excuse to become comfortable with using words that can hurt others.

4. The Assumption* (Grace of a happy death; eternal happiness) Revelation 12:1
5. The Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth* (True devotion to Mary) Revelation 12:1
*Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible.
Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic
Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974.
1. Hail Mary, full of Grace
Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love)
2. The Lord is with You
Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life.
3. Blessed are you among Women
Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women.
4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus.
5. Holy Mary, Mother of God
Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity.
6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them.
Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death."
This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession.
As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross.
(John 19:26-27)
The Hail Mary is throughly rooted in Scripture.
The question isn't where is the Holy Rosary in Holy Scripture?
That's not the question.

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15).
In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two.
Matthew 15:3 -
He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?”
Matthew 15:6 -
So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.
Matthew 15:9 -
In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.”
Matthew 16:23 -
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33).
Mark 7:8-9, 13 -
“You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.”
1 Corinthians 2:13 -
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.
Galatians 1:9-12 -
As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:8 -
See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 2:13 -
And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 -
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness.
The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself.
When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting.
1 Corinthians 11:2 -
I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 -
So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 -
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.
2 Peter 2:21 -
For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
I disagree. In my view, context does matter a lot, but we can’t escape the fact that some words just have a crude/obcene definition (related to fornication, bodily fluids and etc), and using them would go against Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 15:18-20 and Paul’s instructions in Ephesians 5:4.
Either way, really like your videos man, God bless you! ✝️
wait til you hear what Paul actually said in in Philippians 3:8
But even beyond that, I consider everything a loss in comparison with the superior value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have lost everything for him, but what I lost I think of as sewer trash (skubala), so that I might gain Christ
look up what skubala is
@@duckymomo7935 Hey man. I looked “skubala” up, but turns out it is not a swear word at all (it doesn’t even mean “poop”). There is a scholar called Gary Manning Jr., and this is what he found out:
“I did a search of two exhaustive databases of ancient Greek literature (Perseus and Thesaurus Linguae Graecae) to see if σκύβαλα functions as a swear word in Greek. I discovered that nowhere in all of ancient Greek literature is there a clear example of σκύβαλα functioning as a swear word or even as a rude word”. The evidence being it was widely used in a lot of medical and philosophical documents of the time. But there’s more…
After analyzing old papyri, he also discovered that it might’ve even had a different meaning than we think it had: meaning “waste” (all kinds of waste) instead of dung.
Check out his work, I’ll link it here. God bless ya brother, have a good day!

Edit: typo
Words are powerful and it is important to watch what you are saying...for God spoke and it came to be. Its not what you put into your body that defiles you but what comes out that defiles you. ❤
For me, context matters, and a practice of self discipline matters. We ought to not act on the desire to use vulgar language, and our language is a manifestation of where our heart and mind is. When I swear, what is the context? Usually pain, anger or some form of frustration, which we tend to justify. However, who is offering that justification? Not the Lord. In short, we should never intentionally use vulgarity of any kind, and if we impulsively do so, correct it just as quickly. Exercise self control over the natural man in all things. I am still working on that with food and swearing.
The Bible does say let no unwholesome speech proceed from your lips, and the Didache very explicitly condemns profanity itself. The problem with profanity isn't that it casts spells or curses, which is absolutely silly. The problem with profanity is that it alienates the Holy Spirit from the Tabernacle of our hearts, his dwelling place. For from the treasures of the heart the mouth speaks.
imo that’s more to do with making dirty jokes than saying certain words.
@@littlesherlock2313 negative, its letterally all perverse speech. Check out James Chapter 3, even the brother of Jesus Christ says bad speech is contrary to living as a christian.
@@joshuav4596 after reading James 3, it seems clear to me that he’s talking about using your words to insult other people. Verse 10 “from the same mouth comes blessing and cursing.” He doesn’t mean cursing in the sense of saying “curse” words, he means literally cursing others, insulting them. “Cursing” was not used to mean using “curse” words until modern times. I think this passage condemns insults, gossip, slander, calls to unjust actions, belittling speech, lies, dirty jokes, blasphemy, and any other way we use our mouths to demean others or offend God. No singular word is inherently evil, it’s all about the meaning and intent of our words.
Christianty has been spitting awful crap from their mouth for years.
@@joshuav4596 Myth. That's wasn't the brother of christ.
Dude, even people in the world agree that explicit language is corrupt. That's why it's censored or a warning is issued on TV shows and music.
I'd never stub my toe and let out a loud F-bomb in front of children.
Yeah but even you acknowledge context and said "in front of children"
Of course, if you’re around a bunch of kids, you’ll do everything in your power not to say anything worse than “aw! Fiddlesticks!”
But what if you’re completely alone, and you stub your toe on a corner while going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. In that case, I don’t think it’s inherently wrong to swear, especially since studies have shown that swear words actually help to reduce physical pain.
@@Sixty_Five_PronghornConsidering the fact that swear words are disrespectful, and that God is always watching what you do and always hears what you say, then it is not particularly good to swear even when you're not around people.
Any word could be corrupted in a certain context. Swear words are just words insults are bad but swear words are not
I agree with you, brother. Swearing and cursing should not be up for debate. It reads as lukewarm.
Stupidity is a sin. Mockery is useful.
Me who uses swear words every hour: 🗿
3 Points from a linguist:
1. The principle that says, “If it’s not sin, it’s ok” is not Biblical. Scripture leads Christians to do more than not sin, but to actively do good.
2. Words are culturally defined within a community, thus despite the arbitrary nature of language meaning, you cannot as a single or small group strip words of their negative cultural associations. This means certain words with strong negative associations should be treated as relatively fixed independent of use or context.
3. Considering 1 and 2 above, actively following Biblical instruction will result in speech without curse words. Correct cultural representation of Christ in a secular society warrants the removal of cursing from vocabulary. That they are not sinful to use does not alone warrant their use. The only exception is referring to the words for quotations or examples.
As someone who studied linguistics casually, what do you mean when you say that meanings of words are arbitrary?
Genuinely curious, regardless of the larger conversation.
@@fiery_hunter3271 Hey, a real question, refreshing. Thank you!
The arbitrary nature of language refers to the lack of necessary connection between the symbols that make a word and the words given meaning. For example, there is nothing about the symbols c a r in “car” that necessarily connect to what we associate with “car.” The symbol is culturally assigned to its meaning. So if someone were not aware of the meaning beforehand, nothing about “car” allows that person to infer the ideas associated with “car.” That is arbitrariness. As a contrast, if we switch from language to an alternative symbol system like pictograms, the connections between the symbols and their respective meanings are abstract but not arbitrary. There is typically a design strategy to ensure the symbol visually resembles what it means, thus communicating without arbitrariness. This pictogram for example,♿️, resembles a wheelchair, and anyone who has had a background with a wheelchair should be able to visually decipher the symbol without any extra learning step, the visual knowledge from the experience is enough. Because of the visual nature of the symbol being truly connected to what it means through having similar visual features, the symbol is not arbitrary.
Hope this helps!
I’ve always made this argument since I was young, even without biblical context. I 100% agree with you, I even had this conversation with my pastor and he agreed. As you said, and as stated in Corinthians, just basically be aware of your surroundings and don’t use swear words as a means of demonization as that is where it’s perceived as negative.
For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. - Mark 9:49
Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. - Colossians 4:6
smh.
@@garethwest9069 shake your head all you want, where in Colossians does it say to not swear? You just backed what I typed out.
@@RoninXCVII Colossians 3:8 says to put away filthy communication which puts swearing in that category we can't expect to be called Christians and walking with Christ and also swearing at the same time it just doesn't work if Jesus was right next to you do you think He would approve?
@@nelsondavila9072 I agree with what you’re saying. But think of it this way, what we consider swear words are words we were taught were bad. Realistically they’re just words, and we’re just giving power to a word that in a non hurtful context is just another word. That’s how I view it. Granted if we want to just say they’re bad altogether then it’s no different from lusting after a woman/man, killing, theft, etc. because a sin is a sin. I get that it says don’t use filthy language, but what that language is, is up to interpretation based on the times. Using what we know as the common swear words today aren’t that filthy when used as any other passive word.
@@RoninXCVIIswearing in its proper context is a language based on insults, negative thinking/thoughts, or corruption on proper English language it's impossible to try to edify grace to people with the use of swearing
Ephesians 5:4
Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving

*Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible.
Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic
Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974.
1. Hail Mary, full of Grace
Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love)
2. The Lord is with You
Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life.
3. Blessed are you among Women
Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women.
4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus.
5. Holy Mary, Mother of God
Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity.
6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them.
Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death."
This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession.
As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross.
(John 19:26-27)
The Hail Mary is throughly rooted in Scripture.

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15).
In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two.
Matthew 15:3 -
He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?”
Matthew 15:6 -
So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.
Matthew 15:9 -
In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.”
Matthew 16:23 -
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33).
Mark 7:8-9, 13 -
“You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.”
1 Corinthians 2:13 -
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.
Galatians 1:9-12 -
As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:8 -
See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 2:13 -
And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 -
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness.
The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself.
When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting.
1 Corinthians 11:2 -
I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 -
So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 -
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.
2 Peter 2:21 -
For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31
I don't think that swearing would bring glory to God. And what would Jesus do? Because we ought to be like Him.
Alot of things doesnt bring glory to god, but there are alot of things that also doesnt bring disglory to God either.
@@Ghatius well, for example, what doesn't bring disglory to God?
@@gleborlov_77 Drinking a glass of soda. Reading a fantasy book. Playing mindcraft. Watching Stranger Things. The list could be long.
@@Ghatius reading a fantasy book, playing a game and watching a movie is a waste of your time, which God has give you to spend it for Him and with Him. 5 minutes in the eternity, and you will be mourning that you spent so much time on yourself, and that you should've sacrificed more. Christ has given everything for you. Do the same. You will spend eternity with God, do you really want to spend your time only on yourself right now? Isn't it selfish?
Now, please read a small article by John Piper, called "How to drink orange juice to the glory of God". It's great.
When I asked two weeks ago “Is the doctrine of total depravity biblical?” my answer was yes. And one thing I meant was that all of our actions apart from saving grace are morally ruined. In other words, everything an unbeliever does is sinful and thus unacceptable to God.
I said that one of my reasons for believing this comes from 1 Corinthians 10:31: “Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” I asked, “Is it sin to disobey this biblical commandment?” Yes. So, I draw this somber conclusion: it is sin to eat or drink or do anything not for the glory of God. In other words, sin is not just a list of harmful things (killing, stealing, etc). Sin is leaving God out of account in the ordinary affairs of your life; sin is anything you do that you don’t do for the glory of God.
But what do unbelievers do for the glory of God? Nothing. Therefore, everything they do is sinful. That is what I mean by saying that, apart from saving grace, all we do is morally ruined.
Believe and Know
Some of you then asked the practical question: Well, how do you “eat and drink” to the glory of God - say, orange juice for breakfast? One answer is found in 1 Timothy 4:3-5:
[Some] forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.
Orange juice was “to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.” Therefore, unbelievers cannot use orange juice for the purpose God intended - namely, as an occasion for heartfelt gratitude to God from a true heart of faith.
But believers can, and this is how they glorify God. Their drinking orange juice “is made holy by the word of God and prayer.” The word of God teaches us that the juice, and even our strength to drink it, is a free gift of God (1 Corinthians 4:7; 1 Peter 4:11). The prayer is our humble response of thanks from the heart. Believing this truth in the word and offering thanks in prayer is one way we drink orange juice to the glory of God.
Drink in Love
The other way is to drink lovingly. For example, don’t insist on the biggest helping. This is taught in the context of 1 Corinthians 10:33-11:1: “I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved. Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.”
Everything we do - even drinking orange juice - can be done with the intention and hope that it will be to the advantage of many, that they may be saved.
Let us praise God that we have escaped, by his grace, from the total ruin of all our deeds. And let us do everything, whether we eat or drink, to the glory of our great God!
So, there are no such things that don't "disglory" God.
You have a strong conscience, brother. I hope we get to meet on this side of heaven.
Yes. This is totally true. My first (and last) relationship was with an amazing guy who I still love who had the tendency to swear. We were both Christian's and we actually met because I gave occasional messages at our youth group and he was on the worship team. So that really threw me. His family kinda helped me understand this whole idea better. But you have to still be careful and use it in moderation. It was so unfamiliar to me that it started really slow and when I was more comfortable with the idea... it wasn't healthy for me. For some people it might be fine. For me it was not. Context and individual discernment is necessary. ♥️
On the fence. As outlined in your example, context is everything I think. I noticed that I felt like a fool giving full vent to my anger when I started cussing. Great vid
It is about how you direct it and use it. God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.

@@InspiringPhilosophy thanks for the response. Maybe on the fence isn’t the right phrase. I think it’s pretty clear that God didn’t exactly stop at dirty slut when talking about Israel in Hosea.
Perhaps there is no need for me to point out other sinful contexts for harsh language since that’s not the point of this video. I think there’s some wisdom buried beneath the overly puritanical rule. I really concerned my dad with some lyrics I wrote once where I never actually cussed but I still write from time to time and speak in aggressive ways that makes me put probably way too much thought into this.

Why do we want to curse? To be friends with the world? Just because it feels so good sometimes and scratches a certain deep itch, when at other times convicting us? The first sounds like worldliness, the second fleshliness
Curse words are how the world talks. Turn from the very appearance of evil.
"Let no corrupt communication come out of your mouth"
Why is it that I can predict IP will minimize cussing before I watch it?
I encourage all Christians to execute discernment and test the spirit.
I knew it is coming because i heard him using F bombs before.
@@nikokapanen82 When was it😮
@@champion3859
In one of his Matt Dillahunty debate where he was enjoying his whiskey and somewhere close to the end of their debate he approves Matts cursing by dropping an f bomb himself, like when Matt asks can he curse, Michael answer "you f***ng* cant" with a smile in his face.
@@nikokapanen82Wow, disappointing
Context is always key
Not a Christian but I've been saying exactly this forever. Nicely done sir.
I helped lead a teen youth group for nearly a decade, on more than one occasion I said to a teen “listen here dipstick” to make sure I had their undivided attention so I could speak to them regarding their language and general behavior. If I hadn’t called them a dipstick, they would have brushed me off and ignored whatever it was that I said in regards to their language or behavior.
If it’s “not that bad” then why would Jesus say calling someone fool will hold you to judgment by hell fire?
I'm saying
@InspiringPhilosophy
What does this verse mean?
“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.”
Ephesians 4:29
If there is malicious intent behind your words, swear word or not, then it is wrong. You don't necessarily need swear words to corrupt your speech.
Can you give a way to determine which words are corrupt and which words aren’t without it being arbitrary?
@@yaboiij6694
The answer is right in the next chapter of Ephesians.
Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person-such a person is an idolater-has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
Ephesians 5:1-6

@@silenthero2795calling someone Cringe and oe Noob are definitely offensive
This reminded me of something my pastor said in church a few weeks ago. She said she went to a funeral and a friend of the deceased wanted to say prayer and so she stepped aside and he gave one of the most curse filled prayers she ever heard, but it came from his heart and he was just using his natural vernacular with God. She thought it was a little funny but reported that it was a beautiful prayer sending his dear friend off to heaven and she loved hearing what he had to say. You see, God hears every word you say and thought you think, and we forget that WHEN he hears it isn’t important because he still hears it either way. There isn’t a specific way we have to pray, it’s just talking to God you know?
My Bible teacher introduced me to this channel. I was wondering about this. Thanks
For the longest time there was a form of swearing that Jesus actually _did_ warn against, that being swearing on religious artifacts, the temple, or God Himself. I believe in Quebec they still have a swear word "Tabernac" referring to the Tabernacle. It's only really recently that swearing has referred to words for poop, genitals, sex, or derogatory words for women and other races.
Damn, what a great clip.
If you think this is appropriate, you dont have the Holy Spirit.
That makes no sense...what does damn mean
The Holy Spirit is not a legalist like you.
Ethics is Inherently messy. It’s impossible to give ethics laws without it containing complexity. If you don’t realize that you have not studied ethics.
@@InspiringPhilosophy Damn- be condemned by God to suffer eternal punishment in hell.. Now does that sound like a word you want to use in your day to day use irrespective of "context"...
Jesus states something like this in the Bible, Do not use filthy language. What Jesus is referencing is that christians are supposed to speak wisdom every time they speak so that when they speak anyone who is listening can learn and grow.
Personally, I believe using swear words ☁️ cloud ☁️ our testimony and can create doubt as to who we say we are vs who we really are. I don’t need to use them to express my self
The only “unforgivable sin” is cursing the spirit, holy- etc
Jesus died for ALL sins. The only “unforgivable sin” is to reject Jesus.
@@Guhnn and what that is, is blasphemy against the Holyspirit. Any person who rejects the Gospel of Christ or claims it’s not of God(Acts 7:51, Mark 3:30), Refuses to turn from a life of sin and answer the call of salvation(Acts 3:19, Hebrews 12:25), Hardening their hearts against God all the way to their death(Romans 2:5, Ephesians 4:18).

@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15).
In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two.
Matthew 15:3 -
He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?”
Matthew 15:6 -
So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.
Matthew 15:9 -
In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.”
Matthew 16:23 -
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33).
Mark 7:8-9, 13 -
“You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.”
1 Corinthians 2:13 -
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.
Galatians 1:9-12 -
As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:8 -
See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 2:13 -
And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 -
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness.
The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself.
When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting.
1 Corinthians 11:2 -
I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 -
So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 -
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.
2 Peter 2:21 -
For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.

Sorrowful Mysteries:
1. The Agony in the Garden (True sorrow for sin; repentance) Matthew 26:36-46; Mark 14:32-42; Luke 22:39-46

5. The Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth* (True devotion to Mary) Revelation 12:1
*Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible.
Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic
Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974.
1. Hail Mary, full of Grace
Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love)
2. The Lord is with You
Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life.
3. Blessed are you among Women
Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women.
4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus.
5. Holy Mary, Mother of God
Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity.
6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them.
Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death."
This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession.
As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross.

I see the point you are making, but what about the scriptures
Mark 7:20, and Ephesians 4:29?
These scriptures tell us that what comes out of our mouths matter, and to not let any unwholesome talk come out of our mouths as well. Is it possible that unwholesome talk could be what we hold as culturally inappropriate today? If not, then how so?
There is also Ephesians 5:4.
I agree, however I would also say that to use swear words casually, even without malicious intent, can make us look too much like the world. Remember, we are to be set apart, and so people should be able to tell us apart. If the worldly people use swear words very casually, I don’t think we should.
Simply saying something else is worse doesn't make something else okay
We are called to be different/ set apart from the world , like the modern Christian embrace of tattoos it seems like this is another way to justify fitting into the world. Not cussing is the easiest way to stand apart today I don’t see what you gain by being like the unbelievers as much as possible .
Cursing is from hell, period. I even had to be delivered from a spirit of cursing in the beginning of my walk with God, because i was cursing all the times and didnt know why.
God used language that was considered harsh or vulgar: Matthew 23:17; 33. Paul used vulgar language in Galatians 5:12. Isaiah did in Isaiah 57:8-10 where he used a euphemism for penis.
@@InspiringPhilosophy I understand pastor Jeff Durbin also uses this argument. I think it depends on the context like Song of Solomon is very sexually explicit but used in a non sinful way while the same story turned into a graphic movie would make it sinful .
I would also add you need to ask how we are called to be different. John 13:35 says we are called to be different by how we love, not because we avoid tattoos or specific words old time conservatives demean are in appropriate. Do not supplement the gospel for man made traditions.

Sorry, but I cannot imagine ANY context in which Jesus or His disciples would call somebody a MFer or say, "Hey my Ni**a". You don't need a specific command from God going over every possible profane word and whether it is okay or not. If even the secular culture recognizes the word as profanity, that should suffice.
"Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving"
EPHESIANS 5:4
Jesus called pharisees brood of vipers
Paul says skubala, which is kinda hard to get around the fact that it is an offensive word, in Philippians 3:8 But even beyond that, I consider everything a loss in comparison with the superior value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have lost everything for him, but what I lost I think of as sewer trash (skubala), so that I might gain Christ
@@duckymomo7935
Yes, I am aware. However, neither of those are considered profanity by society.
This is exactly what I had in mind towards swearing. Thanks for making this video.
May God bless you
Thank you so much for posting this!!! I needed to hear this!!!
We disagree again Mike lol that’s alright though
Explain this then:
Snakes! Sons of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell? “Therefore, I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers of religious law. But you will kill some by crucifixion, and you will flog others with whips in your synagogues, chasing them from city to city. As a result, you will be held responsible for the murder of all godly people of all time-from the murder of righteous Abel to the murder of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you killed in the Temple between the sanctuary and the altar.
Matthew 23:33-35 NLT
God himself (Jesus) calls people sons of Vipers and Snakes. I'm pretty sure that this is equivalent of calling someone a son of Satan and Jesus is referring to the story of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit and Satan being there in the form of a snake.
Here he calls people in the Temple as thieves:
Then Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out the people selling animals for sacrifices. He said to them, “The Scriptures declare, ‘My Temple will be a house of prayer,’ but you have turned it into a den of thieves.”
Luke 19:45-46 NLT
Why do you disagree?
@@debrazickefoose8125
1 Corinthians 8
He’s pretty much saying that Christians using cool curse words maturely in context is the same as the church of Corinth understanding the fulfillment of the Old Testament through Christ lol
Isaiah 57
Isaiah is a prophet quoting the exact words from God. We are not God. God is the only perfect and holy being that holds the right to curse anything. That’s the point. He’s saying our idle, in context, mature cursing, is justified by the example of God’s Holy Judgement and rebuke lol
Lastly just off the top of my head I think I know at least seven verses that warns us about the dangers of the words that come out of our mouth.
What he’s saying is not consistent with the Bible

Proverbs 18:21
“Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit”
If you know it’s wrong, and you DO it, repent. It’s that simple. Jesus will forgive any And ALL sins!
Proverbs arent law, thats why they are Proverbs of wisdom, they are a good idea, but not necessary, as deemed in the The Book of Proverbs, not to hold it higher than the law of Moses...
@@RustyTheWalrus the verse is clear on the tongue whether you eat of the fruit of life or death its pretty clear its part of Obedience of God sense the wisdom is from God not Solomon
@@RustyTheWalrus Book of Proverbs still contain the words of God. So if we use our words properly, we will be okay, but if we use our words improperly we will be cursed.

YES! FINALLY SOMEONE SPEAKS THE TRUTH!
I agree completely with what he’s saying. Remember your speech is from the heart. A hardened heart uses hatred to explain. It’s not the word used but the intent.
People using the F word, the S word and the C word, cause REAL problems for me.
They show that they don't care for other people's feelings.
Worse still, that they may actively *rebuke* your objection to their offending of you.
There is never a justifiable reason to use such terms - ever.
I find that those words "chip away" at the fabric of my moral integrity and lessen my devotion to GOD in the process.
You are assuming there is another person present.
(You are also assuming the other person isn't a Marine and even noticed the terms were used.)
For you, those terms may always be wrong, just like taking a drink as an alcoholic can always be wrong. That doesn't mean that's true for everyone.

@@acem82 If you're suggesting the use of such terms as coping mechanisms for traumatic situations is in any sense justified, then, indirectly, no.
I can understand such words not being used maliciously or out of a foul set of circumstances - if my understanding of what you're getting at is correct??
What i mean when I say that it's bad *indirectly,* is that purposefully putting oneself at risk of suffering trauma to bring on such responses, is what's bad.
Is trauma what you are eluding to?
I wouldn't take those curse words to heart. Where I'm from, friends often refer to each other as ni**a. Some people who aren't from that culture or doesn't understand the context may get upset but the intention isn't meant to upset anyone. That's just a comfortable way for many people to talk. If hearing curse words causes you this much distress, than perhaps it isn't the words that is an issue. Maybe you should reflect on why these words causes you such distress. I'm praying for you. 🙏
I sort of see your point on a few of those but the S word could be a bit more of a discussion if used in a polemic, one could argue that 1 Corinthians 4:13 a more accurate word in an English translation than "Scum" would be the S word as it fulfils the same role in Greek as harsh and was mostly uses to describe waste specifically human fecal product. I don't think any word should be abused but I think a tactical use of any of those words for polemic purposes can be appropriate for Christians depending on circumstances.
@@wakkablockablaw6025 thank you very much for your prayers, I would like to return the gesture if that's okay with you :)
There's no "taking to heart" of such terms, they can merely be being said on television or in the background for instance, with the full awareness that they're not intended to be meant for me.
The thing is, I'm very sensitive to the effects of such things - words spoken/written down, even bad behaviours that others - or even I - might commit.
Perhaps you might call it the armour of GOD that I'm not wearing as comprehensively as I could???
My solution to these problems, is manual labor.
Doing GOD's work, as it were.
From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks luke 6:45
if you have bitterness in your heart it's going to come out of your mouth that's the bottom line.
It's talking about purposely insulting others. Letting your mouth speaks while the heart is not at present to put someone down to put yourself on top of others.
@@ShadowBoyDTE you don't make any sense at all. Are you coherent? The heart is the center of your soul it is where you store and process info. Both your good and evil, if you speak it always comes frim the heart! So if you are angry and bitter you curse both God and man.
In the light of Ephesians 5 Paul talks about letting no foul language come out of your mouth. This is in the same passage about sexual immorality
I have been saying this for years. If I almost wreck my car and yell "F*ck!" Is not the same as telling someone to "get f*cked!"
will you be yelling "F*ck!" in heaven?
It's not what comes out of your mouth when you swear it's what's in your heart when you swear
Yes. Jesus, James, and Proverbs (at least) agree.
I'd love to see someone learned as yourself do a deeper dive into the commandment: Thou shall not use the Lord's name in vane.
Because most modern people translate that into saying "jeebus" or "GD". and I don't think that's right.
Heiser gets into this actually. his view is that it's not about cussing at all. It's about claiming to follow Yahweh (to bear his name) and then go off worshipping Ba'al on the weekends, or doing child sacrifices, things that Yahweh clearly hates.
God told Moses His name is I Am and Jesus confirmed that this is His name. Vain means meaningless, unsuccessful, useless, etc. Whenever you say “I Am” or it’s nickname “I’m” be very mindful of what you say after that!
I’d not go there. It’s not about swearing but carrying the lord’s name. The Hebrew word נשא is used and the idea is about misrepresenting God.
While it is true that people use the name of Jesus or God to express surprise and whatnot way too easily, we must not go into the opposite extreme of not using them at all. I see Christians on TH-cam and other platforms straight up censoring the word God. Like idk, "Thank G-d that...". Guys stop! This looks more like what an atheist would do than anything else! It doesn't at all look like trying to avoid taking the Lord's name in vain. It seems like the opposite, being embarrassed to say the name Jesus or God, or censoring it because you despise it. I'm very serious about this. People normally only censor the words they deem inappropriate.
Whore, damn, and bastard are all used in the bible. Cussing is bad, but using a word such as whore, damn and bastard might be considered a cuss, but it’s meant to be offensive and effective. That’s why the bible uses them.
There is an element of separation here that is pinnacle. Why would we match the world’s vulgarity? When it comes to proceedings from the mouth. Let it be holy. Neither vulgarities nor deeming shouting “raca” upon a brother or enemy is holy.
I think as long as your not using it to hurt someone its ok, but I don't say them often anyway
This man is absolutely wrong.
You are mislead.
SSD I agree with you
Mind explaining
Thanks for justifying swear words. While you're at it, why not justify adultery and stealing too?
In what world is swearing even remotely close to adultery and stealing? Bad take
@@GeneTakovic8 I never claimed that they are remotely close. Try again.
@@Jesus_is_Lord- harsh language is necessary to get a point across sometimes , Mr holier than thou
@@Mayan_88694 Says who? You? Good thing you are not my standard of morality. Harsh language is not the same as swear words. If the Holy Spirit does not convict you of this, instead you make TH-cam video justifying this, maybe you do not have the Holy Spirit.
For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Luke 6:45
This is the problem with western Christianity / Protestantism. They tend to intellectualize everything.
There is a time and place for everything, but it should be something we avoid if another, better word can be used.
"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear" (Eph 4:29). I think we need to be very careful, especially when it can cause our brother to stumble.
To flippantly use the notion of damnation is certainly blasphemous. It is literally (verbally) an insult to God's omnipotence. Same with GD, "Christ's sake," exclaiming "Jesus" as a cuss word. All of these and those similar are using God's name in vain. A literal commandment. As for other profanity:
Ephesians 4:29, 5:4
Matthew 12:36
James 3:10
Matthew 15:10
Guard your tongue brothers.
"Bless, dont curse" - is what a Christian attitude and inner nature suppose to be. So using a bad word like "damn" is not appropriate. We should try not to not damn anything. Now can it slip out from your mouth in a bad moment, yes it can but we should repent from it right away.
Otherwise, i do agree that the context in needed. Sometimes a bad word is actually the only way to describe the reality, like the "whore of Babylon", that city truly is best described as a whore, that is what it is, so in this context, you are not cursing or diminishing anybody, you are stating a fact.
Top comment 🙌
Curse in this case means to literally curse someone or something. Swear words aren't largely used for that so its not fair to assume they are the same
Agree 💯 Just as the word says we are not to partake with the acts or things of this world. So if you know God will not use it DONT you use it. He says be Holy for I am Holy.

4. The Assumption* (Grace of a happy death; eternal happiness) Revelation 12:1
5. The Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth* (True devotion to Mary) Revelation 12:1
*Mary‘s Assumption and Coronation are implied in Revelation Chapter 12 and in other Biblical references, but neither is directly stated in the Bible.
Both events are part of Catholic Tradition. The Catechism of the Catholic
Church defines the Assumption in Sections 966 and 974.
1. Hail Mary, full of Grace
Luke 1:28 (Hail, full of Grace) The Angel Gabriel greets Mary with very respectful greeting used for royalty. The text doesn’t say “Mary” after Hail but it is implied. Gabriel then proclaims Mary full of Grace (full of God’s own life and love)
2. The Lord is with You
Luke 1:28 (The Lord is with you) This is word for word. The Angel Gabriel said that the Lord is with Mary; she is full of his Grace, his own life.
3. Blessed are you among Women
Luke 1:41 (Blessed are you among women) Elizabeth is filled with the Holy Spirit; she is inspired by the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity to proclaim that Mary is the most blessed among all women.
4. And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus Luke 1:42 (and blessed is the fruit of your womb) Elizabeth still inspired by the Holy Spirit proclaims that the fruit of Mary’s womb, the developing Jesus, is blessed. The text doesn’t say “Jesus” after womb, but it is implied, the fruit of her womb is Jesus.
5. Holy Mary, Mother of God
Luke 1:43 (And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?) Mary is full of God’s grace; this would make her holy. Mary is the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity. Since Jesus is God this makes her the mother of God. She is the mother of the God-Man Jesus, not the mother of the Trinity.
6. Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death James 5:16 (Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects) St. James tells Christians to pray for one another. All the baptized are members of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:12-14), therefore it is right to pray for other members of the body. James goes on to say that the prayers of the righteous have great power. What human (other then Jesus) is more righteous then the Blessed Mother. Though she is in heaven she still hears the prayers of her children on Earth and intercedes for them.
Also, for "pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death."
This part is also supported by The Wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) were we witness Her intercession.
As well as Her seeing the death of Her Son Jesus at the foot of the Cross.
(John 19:26-27)
The Hail Mary is throughly rooted in Scripture.
The question isn't where is the Holy Rosary in Holy Scripture?
That's not the question.
The question is where is Holy Scripture in the Holy Rosary.
The answer, everywhere.
You can follow along on TH-cam, type Holy Rosary and the day of the week. Example, Holy Rosary Wednesday and you'll get the Glorious Mysteries.
Peace be with you.

Thanks for touching on this. I try to explain them to my kids just like that. The words were used to express a higher level of frustration.
Am a Christian in the page of the bible it says”if you go church and call your self a Christian or believe you are you are a Christian without controlling what you say then your love for God is nothing”
Wow, this is a video surprised me.
I disagree with IP's take on this issue.
It's false and completely misses the point.

@@curiousgeorge555 amen
@@mrbadway1575How can we know which traditions are apostolic and which are merely human? The answer is the same as how we know which scriptures are apostolic and which are merely human-by listening to the magisterium or teaching authority of Christ’s Church. Without the Catholic Church’s teaching authority, we would not know with certainty which purported books of Scripture are authentic. If the Church revealed to us the canon of Scripture, it can also reveal to us the “canon of Tradition” by establishing which traditions have been passed down from the apostles. After all, the New Testament itself declares the Church to be “the pillar and foundation of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15).
In the Bible, good (apostolic) Tradition is contrasted with bad traditions of men - The bottom (biblical) line is not “tradition versus no tradition,” but rather, “true apostolic tradition versus false traditions of men.” The Bible often expressly distinguishes between the two.
Matthew 15:3 -
He answered them, “And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?”
Matthew 15:6 -
So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.
Matthew 15:9 -
In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.”
Matthew 16:23 -
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (cf. Mark 8:33).
Mark 7:8-9, 13 -
“You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!… thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on.”
1 Corinthians 2:13 -
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.
Galatians 1:9-12 -
As we have said before, so now I say again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed. Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:8 -
See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 2:13 -
And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
1 Timothy 4:1, 6-7 -
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons … If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed. Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness.
The Bible contains much information on Scared Tradition - Scripture is unique, but it refers to an authoritative apostolic tradition apart from itself.
When Paul spoke of receiving and delivering such traditions, he gave no indication that they were fallible or that he questioned any of them because they came through oral transmission rather than the written word. Thus, he appears to take for granted that which many Protestants have the hardest time grasping and accepting.
1 Corinthians 11:2 -
I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 -
So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 -
Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.
2 Peter 2:21 -
For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
First let me say I enjoy your work. And I agree it is circumstances that give the words context. But why curse while stubbing your toe? Evoking a curse, there is more happening than you think. I'm not talking about witchcraft or anything, but the anger coming from you. When Jesus tells the pharisees "out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks" (Matthew 12) he is referring to their hypocrisy, but just that truth should make us think about how we speak... It reveals our heart. And we should honor God with our speech, Colossians 4:6 "let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt..." that's mostly for the unbeliever, but again there is something about restraining the tongue (James 3) And finally I would view cursing as a perversion of speech, Proverbs 8:13 "The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate."
Ultimately "there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" Romans 8... so feel free to curse lol but is it wise? This is just food for thought. Thanks for everything you do, I get a lot out of your channel.
@@hydepark1382 and I agree with his premise at the beginning, not batting an eye tearing someone down with name calling, but getting outraged at cursing.
I do hope folks can understand he is not saying Christians can go around “swearing.” His answer to this question is well thought out and applicable to the topic of language, its use, its context and the intentions behind it.
Try getting my 71 year old mother to realize that lol... I've been trying to make this argument to her for a looooooooooong time. I dont usually swear unless I get very angry, and I usually feel bad about it afterward, but the swear words of today some didnt even exist back then. I think a "bad" word is a word used to hurt someone, or make them feel badly.
I don’t buy it
Foul language is almost always sloppy, selfish and unproductive. Same for sarcasm. Please find better ways to communicate.
Yes! Swearing is just lazy language!
sarcasm is sinful now? come on. why must humankind make up so many teachings and lie by saying that God is for these teachings? unacceptable.
@@omnitone What? When did I say sarcasm? Look at Acts17Apolegetics! He’s like the most sarcastic Christian ever! 😅
@@omnitone Also God was sarcastic in the Bible.
@@shadowleader5gd477 i was responding to KL. please tell him that sarcasm isn't this filthy vile unacceptable form of communication.
My thoughts exactly!!! Thank you!!! I don’t see swear words as being evil at all, but only how you use the word itself. Swear words are not offensive to me and I don’t cringe when I hear others speak them
People can call someone a fat ugly hog & not swear & I deem that as being more offensive than someone saying damn after a making a mistake.
I'd argue that Ephesians 4:29 would argue otherwise
