The tongue could be used for good or bad! With the tongue you can praise God , pray, teach or preach the word of God, lead a person to Christ, encourage someone and bring a smile to their face.
But that same tongue can tell lies, spread false doctrine and curse God. It can hurt another person, ruin friendships, and cause division. How tragic it is that a person's words can cause such pain in another person's life.
We need to use our tongues my friends to edify not destroy! We should build people up spiritually and encourage them rather than tearing them down bringing them pain and sorrow.
