We speak every day. And many times we don't even stop to think about what we are saying. However, a Christian's way of talking should reflect Jesus Christ.
By the grace of God, we need to discard certain types of speaking. And we need to put on different types of speaking.
Instead of lying, truth.
Instead of sinful anger, righteous anger.
Instead of corrupt, decaying communication; words that edify and administer grace.
Instead of bitterness, wrath, shouting, and malice; kind words full of compassion and forgiveness.
As we are conformed to the image of Christ and as we grow in grace, our speech also becomes more like His.
