Language is the use of words in an agreed way as a method of human communication. In other words, if not in an agreed way, it could be corrupt communication. And out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. It can also be established that, what proceed out of our mouth comes from within us (heart and mind).
Clean communication or language is evidence of a bright, wholesome goldly mind. Corrupt language comes about as a result of associating yourself with corrupt people, bad peers and listening to the wrong people.
How we speak talks alot about us. What you say must be evidence of the word of God in your heart. Spend time with the word of God. It will teach you to use language that uplifts, encourage and compliment others with the very word of God.
“Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:” (Ephesians 4:31)
We must be very careful in ultering words and must let the words of God speak to the hearers through us, even in our jokes.
Speak kindly and positively about others so you can fulfill the LORD’s commandment to love one another.
Profane, vulgar, or crude language or gestures, as well as jokes about immoral actions, are offensive to the LORD and to others.
Corrupt language harms your spirit and degrade you. It degrades you because, this degradable words are within you and does not let you profers anything good. Hence, it does not build your spirit, and if you don’t grow, you become retarted.
Many of us are sometimes influenced by others to use these languages. It is very important that, we help others to use clean languages by our example, rather than being influenced by them negatively.
We must consider who we are communicating with, and let our choice of words edify, and minister grace to them.
Politely walk away or change the subject when others around us uses bad language.
