A Double-Sided Tongue

The tongue. The most powerful God-given physical part Christ has given us. A way of communication that could make us or break us. A flame which our heart ripples through souls. A part which has two sides. To serve Him or to disobey Him.

Laugh, mock and slide through our own serpentine tongue, fleshly desires, speaking in our own godlessness ways. Clining through our earthly fortune, reaping mud and dirt that results in our iniquity, an antagonistic lost minds, filled with unrighteousness.

We will sow what we will reap. (Gal 6:7)

The one and true God that created man through His own image. In Christ's very own image, He created us. What can be known about God is plain to us, because He has shown it to us. For His invisible attributes namely, His eternal power and His divine nature have been clearly percieved since the creation of the world in the things that have been made. So we are without excuse. Although we know God, we do not honor Him as God or give thanks to Him, but have become futile in our thinking, and our foolish hearts are darkened. Claiming to be wise we became fools and have exchanged the glory of the immortal God through images, resembling mortal man. We have have forsaken God (Rom 1:20-24) A Holy God that deserves glory yet we do not honor Him as God.

We would awe in disbelief when the LORD manifests in our very own eyes, yet our very own treasure that deteriorates shouts otherwise. Our very own treasure that our heart desires. A mock of gold that we can not bring through our grave.

We praise in an outward expression in God, and yet our spiritual calisthenics talks the opposite way. 

We can not serve the Word and the world simoultanously. 

Blindly listening through worldly "love" while the callousness of our heart thickens with the foundation of the iniquity of our sin.

No one can serve two masters. Either we will hate the one and love the other, or we will be devoted to the one and despise the other. We cannot serve both God and mamon. (Matt 6:24)

For what does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what can a person give in exchange for his life? (Matt 16:26)

But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.(Matt 10:33)

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.(Matt 10:34)

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. (Matt 16:25)

Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near. (Isaiah 55:6)
