You Are What You Speak

Christ taught that “out of the abundance of the heart” the mouth speaks, and that “by your words” you will be justified or condemned. God links our eternal salvation to what we say, and He places the responsibility on us to control what comes out of our mouth. He gives us the help to do this if we strive to put a guard over our mouth. What we say can either bless or curse, and we must strive to always speak wholesome words. For we are what we speak
