Of Tongue And Teeth, Temptations, And Truth!




KJV 1 Peter 3
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

Deceitful Tongue And Darnley
Had It In For Tom Farley
And So
They Held A Kitchen Cabinet
And
Decided To Do And End Run Around Truth
With Tom Farley's Name Pasted On It!

Would You Believe If I Told You That 
Darley Is A Practicing, Name It And Claim It
I Got's Me Some Jesus, Known Christian!?!

Probably Not!

Deed Faith, Darling!
Darley Is A Preacher-Teacher
Who Knows The Publisher Of The Book
But Not
The Writer Of The Good Word!

So What Do YOU Want From ME!?!
Am I Supposed To Be Surprised!?!

No, No!
I Would Love To Be Pleased To Hear About
Or Even Know Of A Christian ... Or Christians
Who Read, Who Believe
Who Practice The Word
And
Don't Deny Its Power
Who Come To The Conclusion That 
The Word Is God's Doing 
God's Leading ... God's Power
And Say
"I'm In With The King!"

I Like That ... I'm In With The King
Aka At The Right Hand Of The Power 
In Touch With Almighty God Glorious
Believing ... And Being Blessed!

So What Word Do We Have For Dear Darley!?!

I Have For Darnley
And
For All Of Us
The Words Of The Sweet Psalmist:



Psalm 141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of ...

And

A Fair Warning And Caution:

Careless Words, Cruel Words
Lying Words
And 
Malicious Words 
All Have One Thing In Common: 
They Can't Be Retrieved 
And 
They Are Killers! 

A Wicked Tongue Is Boastful
A Liar
A Fire
And 
A Poison
And 
Is Roundly Condemned By The Lord! 

Beloved, 

If Your Mouth Is Closed
No One Can Say: "You Said ...!" 

One Of Satan's Best Weapons Used Against Us 
Is 
The Tainted Tongue 
With The Tar Balls Of Accusation
The Ice-Cream Of Innuendo
And
The Laffy-Taffy Of The Tear-Down
Of Which Many In The Household Of Faith Are Known Guilty ...! 

... And Should Be Fittingly Ashamed!

I Hear That!

Let Us Be Good To Ourselves
And
To Each Other
And 
Stop Being Members Of 
The Snake Whisperer Assembly
The Forked Tongue Academy
And
Liars R Us
And Instead
Invite The Lord To Lasso Our Lips 
And 
Help Us To Guard Our Hearts 
So That We Do Not Heap Coals Of Condemnation 
Upon Our Own Heads! 

If Your Words Won't Edify
Bite Your Tongue! 

Don't Practice Lighting The Fires Of Strife: 
Give That Ever-Strike Match In Your Mouth 
To The Lord Christ! 

Plead For The Holy Spirit To Control You 
And
Speak Peace 
Speak Life
Speak Truth
And 
Do Right
And 
Be Forever Blessed! 
Blessings Only Await The Righteous!
