Call No Man A Fool
By Mark Flippo
Matthew 5:22 ESV
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.
This is one scripture I had a hard time understanding. After prayer it seems this goes along with the scripture below.
Matthew 7: MSG
1-"Don't pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults - unless, of course, you want the same treatment. 2-That critical spirit has a way of boomeranging. 3-It's easy to see a smudge on your neighbor's face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own. 4-Do you have the nerve to say, 'Let me wash your face for you,' when your own face is distorted by contempt? 5-It's this whole traveling road-show mentality all over again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face, and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbor.
Today peoples mouths get them into a lot of trouble. Most seem to have lost their filters. Trash talk has become rampant. Kids hear every foul thing that has been brought into conversation by the unclean ones. Learn to control your speech! If you have that kind of problem you need to yield yourself to God so you can repent and let Him make you clean.
