Unfitting Words “… Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth … There must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting …” Ephesians 4:29; 5:4

Words matter. Edify… Minister grace… “A man has joy in an apt answer; and how delightful is a timely word.” Proverbs 15:23 “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” Proverbs 25:11 Communication is both a powerful and wonderful tool which God instructs us to use for the better. Ephesians 4:29

Words will be judged. “… Every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:36-37 Communication is both a powerful and wonderful tool which God instructs us to use for the better. Ephesians 4:29

Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits. Do not be overcome by evil words. Romans 12:21 Ephesians 4:20-22 Unbecoming, unfitting, disrespectful, irreverent Crude, foul, base, low, worthless, evil, putrid, rotten, shameful, immoral, obscene, indecent, coarse, dirty, nasty, etc. Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits.

Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits. God’s name is to be hallowed. Psalm 111:9 Matthew 6:9 Not profaned with expressions like “oh my God” or texts like “OMG” Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits.

Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits. Christians are not to engage in jesting or joking that turns to sinful insinuations. Ephesians 5:4 Coarse, suggestive or lustful humor in the form of a sly question, an embarrassing answer, a clever retort or a sensual joke. Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits.

Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits. Do not use carelessly words that defile the man and bring reproach on the name Christ. Example: wuss Derogatory term for weak or cowardly man, a wimp, sissiness Compound word: wimp and puss (crude, slang term) Unwholesome words are worldly bad habits.
