After witnessing a "WTF" on alliance chat today and comments by a different person that they personally didn't think profanity was wrong.....they just didn't use it because it was an alliance rule......I bit my tongue really hard.
I could copy and paste page after page on this subject from the internet. I could type my own experience with profanity as a testimony. I choose to do neither. Instead, I have selected three verses from God's Word that address this subject. There are others, but let God speak for himself.
The only advice I will give is that it doesn't matter what any of our OPINIONS are concerning profanity. The ONLY thing that matters is what God has to say on the subject (these are from the NIV):
Psalms 19:14
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Ephesians 4:29
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Matthew 15:17-20
"Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body?
But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man 'unclean.'
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
These are what make a man 'unclean'; but eating with unwashed hands does not make him 'unclean.'"
