Is Cussing a Sin?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2024
- Can a Christian use swear words? Is cussing a sin? What does the Bible say about swearing? Scripture certainly has a lot to say about the power of language, and that power goes far beyond 4 letter words. In this video, Jon discusses the power that language has to build and destroy, while answering yet another question on Christian behavior.

Thank you soo much for this video!!! It frustrates me soo much that people think cussing is so wrong, but complaining & gossiping are not. That bugs me so much. So thankful you made this video.
thankful for the work you do as well. keep being awesome!
FarAwayDistance Shouldn't we stay away from them all? Christians are new creation: the old is gone (2 cor 5:17), they do not follow any more the ways of the old self which they have cruficied on the cross (gal 5:24) but refrain from sinning and not continuing it because they cannot because they are born of God (1 John 3:9)
Colossians 3:8
But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.
Ephesians 4:29
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.
James 3:10
From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
Matthew 15:11
It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.”
Matthew 12:36
I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,
James 5:12
But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation.
*ANYONE WHO JUSTIFIES CUSSING IS GOING STRAIGHT TO HELL* Many will no longer believe in sound doctrine in the *LAST DAYS*
cursing is wrong
Sometimes when you cuss it can be in a humours way, and have no intent to verbally harm anyone, is this still considered a sin?
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.
Yeah bro. That's gossip. Bad mouthing people. Talking behind their back. If I stub my toe and say "Fuck" it's not cursing. If I say "Fuck you" too hurt you. That's Cursing. Swearing is completely different. Swearing on Jesus, God, or your family and such. Its reason, not just the words itself.
@@NevesThaMenace I agree but since I don’t curse since it could create a habit for me to say it to someone in a bad way
@@teohampton8906 to each his own friend. I was just clarifying it. Try to make the habit of just building others up. Then it becomes easier to just say it out if frustration. Because you're never being mean to other people.
@@NevesThaMenace your are so wrong. The bible clearly states that bad words shouldn't come out of our mouths at ANY TIME! when the bible says don't steal for example , it doesn't mean in some situations I can.
@@zephmoe683 "bad words" are perception. So no, you're wrong. The bible doesn't explain the description of said "bad words" you just suck at deciphering.
Brother this is some good stuff. I love it, choosing words to build a person up, not knock them down.
God bless you brother
thanks, friend.
JonJorgenson what about growing marijuana for a madicall purpose , would it be a sin to grow wead, not for smoke ,but for medicinal purposes , even if they say it is illegal ,because it was only made illegal because of what most people choose to use it for !please get back to me brother,please !not trynah do want I'm not supposed to do
I would never bring someone down I would build them even if I cursed while doing it!! Like if I said you are Fucking amazing you make me smile and laugh all the time!!
I have been thinking about this a lot lately, and am so happy you talked about it! love the message :)
thanks for watching. hope it was encouraging.
i personally think cursing AT people could be considered a sin as youre trying to bring people down and hurt them, but yelling a curse word when you stub your toe is fine. depends on the context
Selena Sanchez I absolutely agree
Selena Sanchez but what if You use it for self defence
Gaming Central oh
How bout “fuck I love god so much!!❤️❤️”
So is cursing when your mad a sin even if it's not at someone?
1. Are these words good for building up?
2. Do these words fit the occasion?
3. Do these words give grace to those who hear them?
What if you stub your toe and it slips out
It gives grace to your screeching soul
@@genarodeleon858 nah u good my family cussing all the time except for my mother and my mothers side... my mom if very attached to me so I cant really let it out but best believe they are in my vocabulary and trust me I still really love god
@Zeetyboii love the pfp
1-Yes.
2-Absolutely.
3-Depends on the person. Normal people will say yes,its funny. Purist bitches and snowflakes will say no.
Depends on the context and how you use them. Also depends on how you're raised. I was raised in a "non-swearing" household, but felt free when I finally said some for-letter words out of expression of frustration. Beats punching a hole in a wall or holding in your anger. Just one loud F-bomb made me feel better.
Is it a sin to sing a song that has curses and sing every word in it
I grew up in a house where my dad could cuss the wall paper off of the wall. I also talked like that... until the day I became a Christian. The day after accepting Christ I started to say the "S" word, but the word was stopped in my throat and the words shot into my brain "don't talk like that anymore!". I realized it was God talking, all I could say was "OK". He removed those words - THAT DAY- from me.
Satin still temps me to cuss, but I don't and THAT makes me feel better.
@@hoodagooboy5981 I never curse and Ive grown up in a non cursing household and I tried roasting with my friends today and every time I was wanted curse my body naturally just stopped like I couldn’t curse if I wanted to.
No just control yourself
What I gathered from this is that the words themselves are fine under the right context. If you use words like f*ck, sh*t and d*mn in ways not meant to brung people down, I think it’s okay. The words themselves can be used under the right context, because in the end of the day they’re just words like the rest. The point is to not use these words to bring people down with them. I think saying these words are just about not bringing people down with them. Don’t say the words offensively, use them as to not discourage others. Thanks for clarifying 🙏
If you think it's ok, why did you censor the words?
Thank you for addressing this with a bigger approach than just saying "yay" or "nay". I do think as Christians we need to think bigger and ask bigger questions. I've been getting really nuts about how normal it has become to hear God's name used in cursing (blasphemy), yet how awkward people can be about talking about God and His love. It is all belly up. Your channel comforts me and seeing how many people talk about God in the comments makes me feel a lot less lonely :) Thanks mr!
It's the people who say "Jesus Christ" when they get angry or something bad happens. With out any regard to what they just said. That pisses me off.
I tend to swear by accident but whenever i do, God always reminds me that there is so many kind words and expressions i can choose from and swearing when sudden situations, i realised it doesnt change anything at all it doesnt make anything or feels better.
I love buliding people up and being sweet by uses of my words and i choose to do it that way✝️💓
I hate when people start harassing a christian for swearing but they don't care about someone lying, or gossip! It makes no sense.
i'm not even kidding, your videos always come at EXACTLY the right time in my life. thank you, Mr. Jorgenson, God bless you
Jon, the Lord has blessed you with an incredible talent brother. What your videos have done for me, I don't have the words, but know that God has blessed you tenfold for it. Brother, I'm Catholic, and as a follower of Christ, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I teach 7th grade kids at my church and believe me, they're going to watch this video! Anyway, I just want you to know that your videos are reaching just about everywhere so keep it up. With God, everything is possible. Continue praying for all of Christianity to unite. I love you brother and God bless you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
I have to say being a Christian in a comp can be challenging when every other word you hear is the F word! It is like your being bashed around in a storm where you hear people speak words that have degrading meanings and it hard to listen to. It is most difficult when you don't swear and everyone around you does. Thank you Jon for posting this because I often wonder what God thinks about people swearing and you have just given me the right answers. God bless you.
Alysha Paulsen it’s fucking dumb like the fuck are they fucking cussing about?! Fucking fuckers
@@makergary7546 WHY WOULD U SAY THAT... IM DYING 😭. I feel like there is certain times when u can say it but there is other times where u gotta be careful especially when talking about the Bible or in church
@@boomtroomroomyaya definitely agree! Like saying F Jesus is not appropriate but saying fuck I dropped my pen is probably ok
This was on point with a dash of humor as always 😂
cussing has a lot to do with where you are from too. I'm from Jamaica and a can remember talking to some of my American friends and I used two particular words and they were maaaaaaaaad because to them it is a curse word but to us in Jamaica it is not. The entire situation was awkward.
More to the question tho....... Whatever is coming out of our mouth how does it reflect God? the answer to that will help us to answer a lot
Just so this does not happen to me..what were those two words Mr.Jovaine?
what we say reflects God because we are the children of God. If we go around cussing, then how would others see Jesus in us? How does it make us different from others? Our mouth should be used to glorify God and to bring people closer to God instead of pushing them away. We can't do that if what we say are much of the same as the sinners. Hope this helps in a way (: God bless everyone.
zeewhyohen 😂 I'm weak
Joel Jovaine yeah we're I am from shit is not a bad word but in America it's a bad word! I thought it just meant poop 💩 like saying pick up that shit!
zeewhyohen poor girl 😂😂i feel bad for you the Lord will help you
Swearing is bad. Cussing isn't. There are a few Hebrew words that are forbidden. But unless you curse someone, "I hope you trip and fall". Or swearing at someone, it isn't technically bad.
Cussing is a sin..it is bad!..in peter it says be holy in ALL MANNER of conversation..cussing isn't holy
@hunka hunka my dude lol 👍🏾
@@iamBlackGambit welll
@@iamBlackGambit Who said cussing isn’t holy you? It depends on where you’re from or what culture you’re in. In some places a good word from your culture could be bad to someone else’s culture.
Cussing is not a sin because u can basically say that u fuck with u to mean that I like you or am ur friend and
Fantastic! Thank you for this. I have some Christian friends who are okay with swearing and I didn't know what to think about it. I will share with them what you said. :)
As with most things in God's way, it comes down to heart motives. Thanks for your thoughts. Seems people needed some clarity given all the comments, so I'm glad you put this life-giving encouragement out there for people to consider.
Dude this was really what I needed to hear! I’ve never cussed in my life but recently I have been doing it because well, everyone else around me does and I wanted to look “cool”. But your perspective on it, well really how you exposed the Bible’s directions on the matter, have me a lot of direction. Thanks!
I'm only 15 years old in 10th grade but during middle school, a lot of people cursed and I pretty much got caught up on it at times; in 6th grade the cursing was only a bit, 7th grade was not so much, but 8th grade was pretty high while I knew it was wrong until the second semester of that grade where I suddenly stopped. I really hate it when teenage Christians curse and say, "I'm a Christian so I'm okay." as an excuse. They also think that there are good side effects to cursing while from experience it just makes you more angry and not showing Jesus. Thank you for this video to help me confirm that it is wrong to curse, especially when you're Christian.
very interesting and thought provoking gives me a lot to think about thank you for your hard work and research
thank you for your time and attention.
I love this video. As a new Christian, your channel is so helpful, clear and refreshingly modern. Very easy to connect with how you’re explaining it. Thank you ❤️
I've notice that when I watch your videos of questions u redirect it with a more clear understanding by showing our walk with Christ and helping others along the way. U also have prove to show from the scriptures and that my friend is real smooth:) Thank you and May God truly bless you.
I’m doing my best not to swear use Gods name in vain or talk ill of others.
Oh my goodness
Jesus said what comes out the mouth is in the heart
Strong language is exactly that. Strong language. I believe it should be used very cautiously.
This is God timing! I needed this...thank you and God bless your amazing ministry 🙌🙌
Heyyy, the video is AMAZING. What I've been thinking about lately is using irony. On the internet I found the same verses you mentioned. My personal conclusion after having read those verses and seen your video: If I use irony in a "playful", "not-at-someone's-expense" way to make others laugh, it is building the person up. In other cases, it is indeed kinda crude joking. Just wanted to share that thought. ✌🏽😂
I don't cuss verbally alot but I cuss alot in my mind. It's a hard habit to get rid of. It just pops in your head and God records it.
Honestly cussing shouldn’t be considered a sin, I’ll tell you why because ok can change meanings and intentions on how you use it. You can encourage someone having a cuss word in it. Many pastors that are strong faith cuss because it gives an effect.
I was a swearer. I have repented. It’s wrong. I still slip and get mad at myself when I do. But it is a sin I am conquering. Now. Running my mouth.......that’s been a bigger challenge.
Just because the words didn't exist yet doesn't mean God who is omniscient didn't know THAT the words would come
Cussing isn't sin. Cuss words take on the context of the sentence they are used in. What happens is the content of your heart. Cussing is used quite often in positive or neutral contexts.
Destructus 86 No idle talk should come out of our mouths said Paul
Which is all about the content of the sentences you speak. How you treat others, yourself, etc...
@@GamingandFrightened they say the most honest people do cuss
Thank you for doing this video! I discussed with my mum and some other people a lot about youth language and this video really helps by making an opinion and choose which word I might use are good and which aren't. Thank you and God very much!
God is talking through you so much! I like your character and how you describe things. I really hope I can come to a show of you while I'm in the US. Thank you for uploading videos!
I can’t help it I feel like swearing will make me cool I don’t know why I’ve been trying to do bad things recently I’m trying not to but I feel trapped in the middle of our world and Gods plan for our lives.
You can help it by letting God into your life. Would you rather have others see you as a cool person that curses and does the wrong things and go to hell and suffer eternally with no rest? Or would you rather be a cleaned child of God who does not curse and do inappropriate things and be accepted up to heaven? Personally I struggled with what you're struggling with but now I have 4 very close christian friends who are beautiful and love God just like I do.
God has a wonderful plan for your life. He's called us to be different. Jesus died to save you from the penalty of your sins. When you find yourself turning toward evil things, turn back as quickly as you can and run towards Jesus
I think it's all context and what's in your heart when you swear, but I still try to cut it down.
Hella Funny! :0) Cussing is a very big trial in my life! :0/ I have to ask the Lord to forgive my mouth everyday, but am not cussing like a truck driving sailor like I used to! :0) it is not that I have to cuse @ people, but I definitely think it relieves a whole bunch of tension that helps keep me from acting out at times more so then others!!! I know it's not showing love & kindness & that it's not cool, but I struggle with it regularly & the struggle is real! F**#! But in my defense, my favorite 4 letter F Word is...wait 4 it..Free! :0) Have a blessed day everyone!
I like that!!! Thumbs way up on this one!!! My struggle is definitely cussing. I don't want to, but I feel you on it relieving pressure from acting on what you're thinking. I'm glad this videos here, because, it's amazing to me how, so many.
Christian treat people who struggle with this, as if we committed the most unforgivable sin. Yet most of them tear people down every day with their lies, gossiping. And for those self righteous "saints" who try to make excuses by saying, "if its true then its not gossip." On that note question: Is what you're saying building them up, or working out plans to usher them out of their situations??? Furthermore how about what the Holy Scriptures say about "being a busy body in other peoples matters???" Is the people they're talking about problems or issues any of these gossipers business??? Don't you have you own business to mind and worry about??? Self-righteous people need to also understand this: In the entire witches book of spells and curses. It only has as many or less, cuss words that you can count on one hand.
So my point is to all the self righteous ones, who think they know everything. To go look in the mirror and worry about them zits you got on your on face. Start bursting up those pimples of yours. Instead of looking at what others have. Because you will be the one standing before God to ANSWER FOR YOURSELVES, after all.
I am in the same boat. I’m trying to stop but the devil likes to put me in dark situations making it difficult.

Never Knowing bruh
It's not what you think!! It's what the bible says..and cussing is wrong! Sinful words...you think angles use vulgar and filthy language?
I agree with @iamblackgambit 1. Colossians 3:8 But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and DIRTY LANGUAGE
Yes, according to Romans 3:10-14
As it is written:
“There is none righteous, no, not one;
11 There is none who understands;
There is none who seeks after God.
12 They have all turned aside;
They have together become unprofitable;
There is none who does good, no, not one.”[b]
13 “Their throat is an open tomb;
With their tongues they have practiced deceit”; [c]
“The poison of asps is under their lips”; [d]
14 “Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”[e]
Not what the verse is talking about because we don’t what where curse words back then because they curse words are only curse word identify by society
@@luiway-ej1ym God knows the hearts of men, he knows what is vulgar, and what is pure, what is profane, and what is clean.

Great video
Yes I was reading Ephesians 4:29 and it reminds me that cussing is not very good this is the reason why I thank Jesus Christ because I don't cuss anymore
I never liked cussing or gossiping or telling lies
I’m not completely a Christian (although I’m no atheist) but this is actually so interesting :)
I think everybody could do with hearing it 💖💕
I am only 11, but I glad that you made this channel so I can find out the answer to controversial topics for Christians. Am I too young to watch this channel?
K.C. Rheno not too young at all
You may be a bit too young to have a RUclips channel but you are old enough to hear the video.
@MonsterRage64 homie you’re 3 years late 😭
What about words people use in place or swear words? (Like frick, crap, etc.) wouldn't those words be just as bad because they have the same meaning as the actual swear word in the context of that sentence?
I don't think darn, danggitt, crap, etc is really bad. I use alternative words all the time. It helps me relieve the frustration of the moment. I admit my alternative cuss words are pretty stupid, intense and maybe even immature but they work for me. I don't say them at all around my friends or family. Not sure this is helping my personal integrity though...you know....the whole idea of being the same person in private as you are around people. This whole topic is not a black and white issue in my eyes.
@@garyreems see that's the thing. If you use cuss words to let out frustration, its not a curse. In order for it to be a curse it has to be used against someone. Swearing on the other hand is a misconception. That's in regard to swearing on your mother, father, or Jesus himself.
@@nineballofwow7917 it's only CURSING if used AGAINST someone to hurt them. Otherwise its CUSSING and that's fine in a state of frustration. Though the closer you get to Jesus, the less frustrated you even get. To the point its replaced with joy and the only other thing you feel is sadness because people around you Covet that Joy.
Neves WH I thought the words swearing/cursing/cussing wear used interchangeably.
@@RAYRDWallace or even the act of a Curse in Witch craft form. I had Witches fuck my back up. But the Holy spirit made me upright and filled me with himself. Now I'm protected from curses. Quite an amazing experience.
Here in the Philippines there's a whole moral code that they reference to the bible. like if you use cuss words they label you as as unholy and vile ^^" But thank you for clarifying this topic
idk why I just randomly started laughing after the first 3 *beeps*. I laughed for like 5 mins! Thank for the laugh
Help swearing is becoming a hobby
Loved this video! Have been wanting to talk to my church youth on this. And now I am clear as to what I should tell them. God bless you.
Just try your best to not cuss.
I saw a t-shirt that said, “ I love Jesus...and I cuss a little.” I need that t-shirt!
I need the t-shirt I love Jesus....and I sin
I think everything you said is totally accurate. I agree that the question isn't about the words that physically come out of your mouth, but the intention and your use of them. Great video!!
Ways not to swear
1. F#$& - Just say (Flowers) or (Fudge)
2. B%$&h - Just say (Biscuit)
3. This is my favorite one⬇️
When someone says something or swears at you just say“God bless you” or “Jesus loves you”
And then they will get angry bcz the demon inside of them hates that word. And just know that you done the right thing by softening their hearts by saying the name of our Father JESUS CHRIST🙏😇📖.
To bad swearing means to swear on your mother or father. Or Jesus himself. "I swear on my mothers grave that .... fill in the blank" that's swearing. Not saying "fuck" because I kicked the nightstand while going to take a piss.
By the the way. I love Jesus.
Noo stay away from it more like just ignore the pain and praise Christ He went through more pain than stubbing your toe or burning your hand.
5:09 and how to be in control of ourselves like mature adults!
I love this guy actually funny
I think if your trying to bring down someone by cussing at them its a sin as of what it says in some bible verses but if you break your arm or something like that its fine to cuss like if you think the same
Been searching for a video like this!!! Thank you.
3:04 i thought my phone stopped😂 haha
If i say, “Wow you are so fucking good at your job!” I’m building you up. Nothing harmful. No offense. No feelings hurt.
If i say, “You fucking suck at your job!” I’m breaking you down. I’m hurting your feelings. I’m making you feel bad.
Context is key
What if you curse really positively, like if I’m being really encouraging while cursing to get my point across further? Know what I mean?
I just saw this video but thought I’d reply. I literally was thinking the same thing. What if I said to one of my close friends who was using negative self talk “b*tch you’re beautiful, remember where your worth comes from” haha something like that, is building them up and swearing in that situation may even make her laugh and make her feel beautiful. Like . You can not swear but still have unwholesome talk and bring people down. And in that case my example with swearing, I don’t think would be a sin. But yelling at someone out of anger WITHOUT swear words , would be. We need to place less emphasis on the words them selves and more emphasis on how we use words and if we are glorify God and or encouraging others with them.

“God thinks more highly than us just to give us a rule book” Wow 💖👍
I've always wondered that😲 Thanks for making these encouraging videos, I look forward to learning more about God👌🏼
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✝️❤️ Bible verse.
Where does cussing even come from?
To me it comes down to, are we building people up? I don’t think so with cussing.
I grew up in a no cursing household but here and there it’s good to let off some steam
Very good explanation Jon. I feel like swearing is all about personal conviction and context. In much like you said, are you using that word to build up or tear down? If someone stubs their toe and they let out a quick "Ah, f*ck" out of sheer pain, I really don't see how that's sinful. However, using that same word to spew hate towards someone, or to describe what you did with a girl/guy over the weekend, then that I would think can be sinful because the message behind that context is ugly/crude/hateful.
Lions Alive it's still unnecessary though because we know what the words mean, there are many that are less bad (if bad) that we can use
Thank you, Zechariah Cameron !
So is Cursing when your mad at like a game or anything really as long as it's not toward anyone or if you just say like holy sh*t when you see something cool is that a sin?
@@IWantToMature85 I think they're only "bad" because people made them that way but I do see your point that they are still able to offend others. So maybe we should refrain from using them often or around certain people for the sake of being considerate to others. (Even if the word itself isn't inherently bad & we have freedom to know that context makes a difference.)
Exactly. I have the same arguement to the T.
I was very impressed Jon keep it up
I’m a born again Christian and this video made me laugh new subbie lol 😂 I can’t 🤣
Wonderful, filled with Grace and straight forward, straight up TRUTH here. I work at it every day, I gave myself to Jesus not long ago and pray on the cussing every day - I mean really pray on it...and I am now using gosh and stuff just naturally now, not perfect, but I hear when it's coming and change it...old habits - but I am new, and nothing old need remain. No more OM...you know the rest, think about that one....wow right? Anyway...thanks and Bless you for your time - Praise Almighty G-d. Sub'd
So you can??
Video suggestion: can a Christian listen to secular music?
Yes
Yes you can.
Yes
Not recommended; why would a christian listen to secular music?
I listen to some metal, rock, and a bit of alternative music that has some cuss words in it, is it okay if I sing along to the whole songs, even the swear words?
I think as long as it’s building you or someone else up bro then go for it . I’m late to this lol but hope that’s helpful
@@ht9966 thanks haha
Noo stay away from trying to change words to positive. Just ignore the pain and praise Christ He went through more pain than stubbing your toe or burning your hand.
I don't think cussing is wrong if, as you said, it fits the occasion. However, this doesn't mean that I have the license to cuss casually in conversation. You are so right, Christians should aim to use words that build up God's kingdom. This is my daily desire.
I believe there could have been more of a straight answer within these wise words. Cursing is a sin. As a genuine follower of Christ would you do it in front of God the day you reach the gates of Heaven, or any other scenario you may stand before God in for that matter? Would you rejoice by joyfully shouting any of the 4 letter words? You are born with in your heart knowing the difference between right and wrong people and don't let your desire convince you that you can do things you shouldn't. Don't go against your hearts knowing and let the world desensitize you to what you know is immoral. Hold yourself to a higher standard not just for yourself, but for your brethren around you as you shall not be a hindrance to them and their faith. Some good advice, if you're really having to think about wether something is wrong or not it usually is. God bless you all.
I don't agree with the argument "if you're wondering if it's wrong, it usually is." Many people believe it's wrong to follow Christ. Also, I believe that cursing is a context in which words are used, not words in & of themselves. (This is why some words are used in both good & bad ways.) I.E. people use the name Jesus as a curse word even though it's the holiest name. The word bitch can mean dog, or be used as an insult. The word ass means donkey. Some people consider the word hell to be a curse word & it's in the Bible. Just food for thought....
There are many things people wonder about that are right. For example, muslims wonder when they hear about the Christian faith it's wrong. The Muslim religion would tell them it is. But it's not. Religious legalism has caused much debate about topics that aren't sinful. Many people wonder if something is wrong that isn't just because they were told by someone it's wrong. I believe you are well intended & I'm not in criticism of you but I do feel that is a regurgitated argument personally & not always truthful.
Short answer:No!!!
GOD bless you all ✝️✝️✝️
Matthew 5:34 But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;
He's speaking about swearing, like making a vow it. I think.
@@rosie9650 no, it's not. Febuary Girl is absolutely correct. Use scripture in context, please.

jim kilgore might not have been in context but he has a point the Bible says in Colossians 3:8 But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and DIRTY LANGUAGE.
Love it jon so good! Sad seeing Christians sounding like the world 😔
Thank u bro now that i know that if a word coming out of my mouth does not build my Fathers kingdom and does not draw his children close to his love through me then i would rather never use them !For me it is of much importance that the work God has alotted me to build his kingdom on earth be fulfilled rather than showing my anger and hatred towards people by using cuss words but rather show love of christ that i have in my heart to people who dont know him ........God bless❤
Sooooo good! God bless you! 🇧🇷
you as well!
I have always thought of swear words as simply some words in my vocabulary, like any other words I might use. I don't us them a lot, but they're the most appropriate choice in some circumstances, and in others a different word is best. **shrugs** They add a different kind of emphasis. I never use them for harm.
However... Matthew 12:36-37 DID get me. Even if I don't go the "never swearing again, period" route, I can always learn to mind my tongue a little more. Maybe there are a LOT fewer circumstances where a four-letter one is *actually* the very best choice. Hm.
Great content Jon.
Jon, your video has been helpful as a mafucka! It’s left up to us to discern which words are appropriate. Doesn’t matter how we build people up, but just make sure it’s not gonna do the opposite to them or anyone who may hear.
*All men must come unto Christ:* “Wherefore, all mankind were in a lost and in a fallen state, and ever would be save they should rely on this Redeemer . . . . All men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved . . . . For it behooveth the great Creator that he suffereth himself to become subject unto man in the flesh and die for all men that all men might become subject unto him.”
“He denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female; and he remembereth the heathen; and all are alike unto God, both Jew and Gentile.”
“Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God, inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men; and they that believe in him shall be saved. And because of the intercession for all, all men come unto God; wherefore, they stand in the presence of him to be judged of him according to the truth and holiness which is in him.”
“And he cometh into the world that he may save all men if they will hearken unto his voice; for behold, he suffereth the pains of all men, yea, the pains of every living creature, both men, women, and children, who belong to the family of Adam.”
“And my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should come all men must perish.”
“And he commandeth all men that they must repent and be baptized in his name, having perfect faith in the Holy One of Israel, or they cannot be saved in the kingdom of God.”
“Behold, they will crucify him; and after he is laid in a sepulchre for the space of three days, he shall rise from the dead with healing in his wings; and all those who shall believe on his name shall be saved in the kingdom of God.”
“He has all power to save every man that believeth on his name and bringeth forth fruit meet for repentance.”
Christ himself said, “I bear record that the Father commandeth all men, everywhere, to repent and believe in me. And whoso believeth in me and is baptized, the same shall be saved; and they are they who shall inherit the kingdom of God. And whoso believeth not in me and is not baptized shall be damned.”
“Neither did they receive any unto baptism save they came forth with a broken heart and a contrite spirit, and witnessed unto the church that they truly repented of all their sins. And none were received unto baptism save they took upon them the name of Christ, having a determination to serve him to the end.”
“Neither did they receive any unto baptism save they came forth with a broken heart and a contrite spirit, and witnessed unto the church that they truly repented of all their sins. And none were received unto baptism save they took upon them the name of Christ, having a determination to serve him to the end.”
“And Christ hath said: If ye will have faith in me ye shall have power to do whatsoever thing is expedient in me. And he hath said: Repent all ye ends of the earth, and come unto me, and be baptized in my name, and have faith in me that ye may be saved.”
“For no man can be saved, according to the words of Christ, save they shall have faith in his name.”
All these verses and more are in the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon truly is a testimony of Jesus Christ and has been brought forth by the power of God in these latter days. Anyone who believes these words from the Book of Mormon (and I know these words are true) should contact the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to speak with the missionaries and find out for themselves that the gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored in these latter days.
Great post!
I love those words.
Great message Jon...you put it across very well.
Ya know.... I really wish there was a LOVE button! Well said sir!
this is such a difficult topic to think about thank you so much for what you do and thought you put into every video
So the answer was, it's fine if it helps to encourage someone or if it doesn't hurt or offend anyone. And if it's meant to be used during certain occasions and other ones not, then it also has to be considered along with context. I suppose that makes sense.
Great topic and well said Jon! Love your videos, don't stop ever! Much love to you! :)
This makes me laugh seeing you bleeped 😂, it’s so weird.
I am really blessed ....Thanx for choosing such topics
Thanks man. Yes. There is nothing inherently wrong with word itself. It's all about meaning we put into.
Yes this is really true there is no need for anyone to say curse words because it is harmful, I admit that I have said cuss words and there has been times when my dad and mom heard me say those words and yeah they have gotten mad at me but a lot of times they just forgive me and remind that God is watching and listening to me and it makes me think and Jesus Christ does forgive me
just don’t cuss...it’s addicting but it’s not hard to stop
“Swearing is made to be used when replying gently is to condone with ignorance”
In other words, cussing words have the power to connect and disconnect people to certain behavior. Its our job to have discernment to use the correct words to disconnect people from sin and connect them to the way of God.
Edit: Read the comment below.
1. Colossians 3:8 But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and DIRTY LANGUAGE.
no cussing is good because..
Matthew 15 v 18: 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth, come from the heart, and they defile a man
@@joshuaw1315 Thank you, brother. 7 months ago I was wrong about cussing. Already edited and put a disclaimer 👍🏻
