BAD COMPANY CORRUPTS A GODLY HEART.

BAD COMPANY CORRUPTS A GODLY HEART.
(King James Expositor Study Bible).

Ephesians 4:29-30 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth (let no slander or faithlessness proceed out of your mouth), but that which is good to the use of edifying (does what we are saying buildup or tear down?), that it may Minister Grace unto the hearers (a Blessing). 30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God (proclaims the fact that the utterance of evil or worthless words is repugnant to the Holiness of the Spirit), whereby you are sealed unto the Day of Redemption. (This should have been translated, “In Whom you are sealed unto the Day of Redemption.” The Holy Spirit is Himself the Seal God has placed on us.)

Colossians 3:8 But now you also put off all these (can do so by evidencing Faith in Christ and His Cross); anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

Exodus 20:7 You shall not take the Name of the Lord your God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes His Name in vain (taking the Name of the Lord in vain pertains to all blasphemy, all swearing, all perjury and, in fact, all irreverent use of God’s Name in ordinary life).

1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Know you not that you are the Temple of God (where the Holy Spirit abides), and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? (That makes the Born-Again Believer His permanent Home.) 17 If any man defile the Temple of God (our physical bodies must be a living Sacrifice, which means that we stay Holy by ever making the Cross the Object of our Faith [Rom. 12:1]), him shall God destroy (to fail to function in God’s Prescribed Order [the Cross], opens the Believer up to Satan, which will ultimately result in destruction); for the Temple of God is Holy, which Temple you are. (We are “Holy”by virtue of being “in Christ.”We remain Holy by the Work of the Holy Spirit, Who demands that our Faith ever be in the Cross, which has made all of this possible.)

SINS

Ephesians 5:3-7 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becomes Saints; 4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient (out of character): but rather giving of thanks. (The Believer’s protection against all these sins is the Cross of Christ, and the Cross alone. Keeping the Cross as the Object of one’s Faith guarantees Victory [Gal. 6:14], and for that we are ever to give thanks to God.)

BE NOT PARTAKERS

5 For this you know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and of God (Paul is speaking to Believers! if the Cross is not the Object of Faith for the Believer, but rather something else, these Passages plainly tell us such a Believer will actually come to the place of unbelief and lose his soul; the only answer for the “Law of sin and death”is the “the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus”[Rom. 8:2]). 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words (by trying to pull you away from the Cross): for because of these things comes the Wrath of God upon the children of disobedience (the Cross alone stops the Wrath of God). 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. (Never forsake the Cross, no matter how enticing the other things might look.)

Bad company corrupts a Godly heart.
The bad words you use, shows the wicked heart you have.
