Profanity - a Christian perspective
Christians are to put behind them all of the traits of their sinful nature. That includes filthy and profane speech; we're to make sure that the words that we speak bring honor to God.

Profane - a Christian perspective
Christians are to avoid any kind of profane talk; such language does not promote godliness or encourage others to be righteous.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
Today's passage is from the New International Version of the Bible
