What this episode covers

Using Your Words Biblically - Let your Yes be Yes and No No Bible Reading: ““Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but keep the oaths you have made to the Lord.’ But I tell you, Do not swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.” Matthew 5:33-37 Scripture Reflections to Consider: What are careless words?

What words do they use? Do you have a habit of exaggerating? For more information about our ministry, please visit www.kingdomd.org .
