VII. CONCERNING OUR THOUGHTS AND SPEECH

73. The harboring of unlawful desire is divinely reckoned as guilty action. It is forbidden. (Matt. 5:27-28).

74. Mortify, therefore, or hold in subjection, your members which are upon earth. (Col. 3:5; Gal. 5:24; 1 Cor. 9:27).

75. Remove all causes of spiritual stumbling, or hindrance from your path, even at the risk of pain and loss. (Matt. 5:29; Heb. 12:1).

76. Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt; let no filthy communication proceed out of your mouth, but sound speech, with gravity, and sincerity and simplicity. (Matt. 5:37; Eph. 4:29; Col. 3:8; 4:6; Titus 2:7-8).

77. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God. (1 Pet. 4:11).

78. Speak every man truth with his neighbour; lie not one to another. (Eph. 4:25; Col. 3:9).

79. Swear not at all: let your communication be yea, yea, and nay, nay. (Matt. 5:34; Jas. 5:12).

80. Out of the same mouth ought not to proceed blessing and cursing. (Jas. 3:10).
