In anatomy, the tongue is a muscular organ located in the inner part of the mouth.
The human being uses it to communicate with others through the pronunciation of sounds.
According to the Book of Proverbs 18:21 In the tongue there is power of life and death; those who love her will eat of her fruits (NIV).
On many occasions with the words we pronounce, we hurt or mistreat our fellow men. The Word of God tells us in the Book of James 3: 10-12 ESV 10 From the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be like this. 11 Can a fountain pour sweet and bitter water through the same opening? 12 My brethren, can the fig tree produce olives, or the figs? So also no source can give salty and sweet water.
Because of this we must learn to control this member, who sometimes lights a forest.
The Bible describes us in the Book of Proverbs 4 patterns of Languages that we use when speaking.
1.- The Controlled Language: the people who use this form are those who think before speaking, know when they should shut up and know how to give adequate advice in a wise way.
This can be found in Proverbs in several chapters among them Prov. 10:19 In the many words sin is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is prudent.
16:23 The wise man's heart makes his mouth prudent and adds persuasion to his lips.
21: 23 He who keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from trouble.
Key texts to realize the importance of what it is to learn to hold the tongue to keep our soul from the seol, if we control our lips we would be wise and prudent men and women.
2. Good Language
Those who use this pattern speak with truth and try to give encouragement and encouragement in the midst of any circumstance to their neighbor, believing that God is good and fulfills his word according to his will in each one of us.
In the book of proverbs we can find key verses about this type of language.
Prov. 12: 18 There are those who speak like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise is medicine.
15:23 Man rejoices at the answer of his mouth; and the word in its time, how good it is!
16: 24 Honeycomb are the pleasant sayings, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.
We must try to imitate this type of language so that in this way we can demonstrate to the neighbor the love of God in our lives.
3. The perverse language:
Those who use this type of language when speaking show that they really are full of perversities, are gossiping people, slanderers and desires to distort the truth. We find it in
Proverbs 6: 12-14
The evil man, the wicked man, walks in perversity of mouth; He winks his eyes, speaks with his feet, indicates with his fingers. Perversities are in his heart, he thinks evil at all times, sows discord.
16:28 The wicked man provokes strife, and the gossiper separates the best friends.
25:18 Gavel, and sharp sword and arrow is the man who speaks against his neighbor false testimony
26:28 A lying tongue hates those it oppresses, and a flattering mouth causes it to stumble.
4. The detractor language
Those who use this form when speaking are people who are full of curses, lies, irritable words that lead the person to destruction. These are found in Proverbs 10: 18
10:18 He who conceals hatred is lying lips, and he who defames is foolish.
11: 9 The hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor, but the righteous are delivered with knowledge.
16:17 He who speaks the truth declares righteousness, but the false witness is deceitful.
20:19 He who reveals secrets in gossip walks; do not interfere, then, with the loose tongue.
These last two types of languages we must avoid because we get into trouble with the Lord when we speak what we do not know, we walk in gossip, because these actions are not pleasant in the presence of the Lord ..
May God continue to bless you. Greetings
