Gossip or Grace?

Ephesians 4:29 (KJV) “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.” Proverbs 16:28 (KJV) “A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.” Proverbs 11:13 (KJV) “A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.” James 1:26 (KJV) “If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.” Proverbs 18:8 (KJV) “The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.” Colossians 4:6 (KJV) “Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” Matthew 12:36–37 (KJV) “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”
