Watch Your Mouth
As I was tuning into AM Radio 780 WWOL in Forest City, NC I got to hear yet another broadcast featuring old time camp meetings with preachers that have gone on to be with the LORD. There were referenced in this particular meeting, I'm sorry not to have remembered the preachers name, but, the message I was intently listening to became quite clear really fast. There was a young girl that had sang a song (usually came to my remembrance in the form of a bluegrass tune) in the meeting that has the lyrics, GOD build me a cabin in the corner of Gloryland. The preacher publicly critized her and went on to sing a song that had lyrics, I have found the way (referring to getting saved). After the meeting the young girl approached the preacher and said, I will not embarass you like you did me a while ago, but, I have not found the way, The way found me!!! How many times do I spout off and never know how my unkind words affect someone. I also heard a preacher on this same radio station, make mention that he had worked with an unsaved person for many years in the work place. They had been talking about realationships and the preacher made a rude comment about the unsaved persons wife. He said by the end of the day, the Holy Spirit grab a hold of the preacher and he went unto the unsaved man and apologized. He had said that the unsaved man didn't even think twice about what had been said, but, the preacher told him that he was sorry that as a Christian, I should not have said such a rude thing. The preacher further said, isn't this something, that I, being a saved man, Child of GOD, that I would say such a thing and have to apologize to an unsaved man for the way I talked. He was critized by other Christians as they said, he was an unsaved man, you didn't have to apologize..He looked at them and said..HogWash!!!!! When the Holy Spirit grabs your soul, convicts you, you would apologize to a milk cow!!! All I can say to Christians...Watch Your Mouth!!
