Slander/Reproach and the Bible |
God asks
us to rid ourselves of foul
language.
"But now you must rid
yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice,
slander, and filthy language from
your lips."
Colossians 3:8, NIV
The best protection against
criticism is a clear conscience.
"Keeping a clear conscience,
so that those who speak
maliciously against your good
behaviour in Christ may be ashamed
of their slander."
I Peter 3:16, NIV
What we believe is reflected
in what we say.
"He who guards his lips
guards his soul, but he who speaks
rashly will come to ruin."
Proverbs 13:3, NIV
Those who give it—get it.
"Never criticize or
condemn—or it will all come back
on you. Go easy on others; then
they will do the same for you. For
if you give, you will get!"
Luke 6:37-38, TLB
Christians will wisely learn
from valid constructive criticism.
"If you rebuke a mocker, you
will only get a smart retort; yes,
he will snarl at you. So don't
bother with him; he will only hate
you for trying to help him. But a
wise man, when rebuked, will love
you all the more. Teach a wise
man, and he will be wiser; teach a
good man, and he will learn more."
Proverbs 9:8-9, TLB5
