It's not that anyone's offended! At least I know that I am not. And everyone has a right to their opinion. I guess that should go a long with freedom of speech. We have the right to say anything we want. But as Christian, there are certain guidelines which the Bible speaks on. One is to encourage one another, another is to correct. The Bible speaks quite a bit about the tongue in many ways.
In the book of James, the Lord tells us, but the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison....Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
This is a reminder to me that I need to keep watch of the things I say. Including, my own opinions. For in my heart, depending on how I may be feeling about a person or topic, the words of my mouth will genuinely reflect my own feelings. So in everything I say I ought to try and say it in the spirit in keeping to God's words. Again, no man can tame the tongue! Only through God are all things possible!
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
Notice in relating things with God's words, I focus it on myself and not pointing fingers, in not to offend. Because I know I may speak and offend others when I do so. You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. In being a hypocrite myself. Always, always, focusing God’s words on me first, why because he first loved me!
If anyone sees my respond as being deceiving, which is what is being spoken of by the media and as I put it earlier, other Christians who tend to use our Lords words for their own agenda, may God correct me if I am speaking out of line.
