The Mouth
TOPIC: THE MOUTH
PREACHER: PASTOR J.T. KALEJAIYE
God formed man perfectly. He gave
every man two eyes, two nostrils, two ears, two hands, two legs but “ONE
MOUTH”. Have you ever wondered why God gave man one mouth?
·
The mouth is small but it is very powerful and
dangerous
·
It can build up and it can pull down
·
It can flatter and it can slander
·
The mouth can bless and it can curse – James 3:
10
·
The mouth can get one polished and it can also
get one punished
A fool can be identified easily by
the words of his mouth. A wise man speaks because he has something to say but a
fool speaks because he has to say something.
