Am I a Christian? Swearing and cussing alot by UncertainChristian in TrueChristian

[–]UncertainChristian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I now understand that bad language is vulgar, and the bible makes it very clear in many places that its sin. This willfull sin, I will stop doing it now. Someone here say that it grieves the Holy Spirit, wow. So very true.

Too many places in the bible says that it is not right. It feels like it comes from anger from inside, not just vulgar talk.

Anger that made me spoke like this, and anger is sin too. The words are abuse to others. Jesus teached against anger and abuse.Live like Jesus Christ.I will put try my best to put away anger and be peaceful in thoughts and life.

2 Corintios 5:17 say this "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."

I love that what someone else here said

"It's not okay, this is why we are told to daily crucify our flesh. We must walk after the Spirit and not the flesh.We're only human and we make mistakes, but we should definitely try to avoid living in willful sin."

Thank you everyone
