Língua
A língua tem poder de vida e de morte. A Bíblia compara a língua ao leme de um navio e à faísca que incendeia uma floresta. Dominar a língua é prova de maturidade espiritual.
O poder da língua
A morte e a vida estão no poder da língua. Quem a domina é varão perfeito, capaz de controlar todo o corpo.
For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle his entire body as well.
12 • TR ¦ If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they will obey us, we guide their entire bodies as well. 𝔐7 CTBehold, we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they will obey us, and we guide their entire bodies. Or take ships for example, though they are so large and driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the helmsman directs. In the same way, the tongue is a small member, yet it makes great boasts.
Consider how great a forest a little fire kindles. And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is placed among our members as a world of unrighteousness, staining the entire body, setting the course of life on fire, and itself being set on fire by hell.
Every species of beast, bird, reptile, and sea creature can be tamed and has been tamed by man, but no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
With it we bless God our Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be. Does a spring pour out fresh water and bitter water from the same opening? Can a fig tree, my brothers, produce olives, or a grapevine figs? In the same way, no spring can produce both salt water and fresh water.
Palavras sábias
A língua branda quebra até ossos. A palavra certa no tempo certo é como maçãs de ouro em salvas de prata.
Disciplinar a fala
Quem guarda a boca e a língua guarda a sua alma de angústias. A religião sem controle da língua é vã.
If anyone among you considers himself to be religious but does not bridle his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
Toda língua confessará
Ao nome de Jesus todo joelho se dobrará e toda língua confessará que Jesus Cristo é Senhor, para glória de Deus Pai.
Therefore God highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every other name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
The Way of Love
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
But I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give an account for every idle word they speak. For by yoʋr words yoʋ will be justified, and by yoʋr words yoʋ will be condemned."
