Let Communication Be

Matthew 5:37

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

This modern world has been called the information age. However, many words do not necessarily communicate more information. It is time to reexamine the importance of the words we use, and how we use them. At the last judgment, it is our obedience to the Word that will be valued. As it is written:

John 12:48

He that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
