7 And when you talk to God, do not say words that mean nothing, over and over again. People who do not believe in God do that. They think their god will hear them because they say many words.
15 If your brother does something wrong to you, go to him. Talk alone to him and tell him what he has done. If he listens to you, you have kept your brother as a friend.
18 My children, we must not only talk about loving people; we must show we love people by what we do for them. We must really love them.
9 You must not do wrong things to those who do wrong things to you. You must not say wrong things to those who say wrong things to you. But ask God to bless those people. This is what you have been called to do. Then God will bless you.
3 What you have said in the dark will be heard in the light. What you have said in secret with the door shut will be told from the tops of the houses.
9 If you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised Christ from death, you will be saved.
2 We all do many wrong things. Any man who never says anything wrong is right in every way. He is able to make his whole body do what is right.
36 I tell you this. On the day when people are judged, they will pay for every empty word they have said.
26 Also the Spirit helps us because we are weak. We do not know how we should talk to God. But the Spirit himself talks to God for us, while we cry and cannot say any words.
29 Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.
19 My dear brothers, do not forget this. Every man should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to be angry.
45 A good man has stored up good things in his heart, so he says good things. A bad man has stored up wrong things in his heart, so he will say wrong things. The mouth will say what is in the heart.
