'..~\A One of our Bible writers in speaking. of Peter lett us this to ponder, "Thy" speech betrayeth thee." Roy H, Short 5.138. "The fact of the matter is that our speech always betrays us. It be- trays our nationality and frequently the section of the country from which we come. but it also betrays our train- ing: and character and the extent of our religious development. The ma- ture Christian is characterized by a certain type of speech. He speaks the name of God with reverence. His language is gracious. It is free from harshness. sarcasm and sting." Emmerson has said “Use what lan- , end guage 3011 will. you can never say any- 3 Jon thing but what you are. iEve Another Bible writer has left us the, warning "that every idle word that“ men shall speak. they shall give an ac-1 count thereof in the day of judgment." Surely it we realize. the importance of this warning we will realize the im- portance of words. Sue Davidson has written this “By our words we choose the course we shall take for time and eternity."
