Preparing yourself for the study of God’s Word
Before we begin, only if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ (that is; you have believed [trusted] in Him for His promised gift of eternal life) John 3:16, John 6:47 as a few examples; it is very important to prepare yourself to learn God's Word so the Holy Spirit can teach you as to what your reading or hearing is true or false. To be taught by the Holy Spirit you must be filled with the Holy Spirit which means abiding in Christ. To place yourself in fellowship with God the Holy Spirit [also called abiding in the Christ], take a moment to simply name, cite or acknowledge [confess] your known unconfessed sins privately to God (i.e.; with your thoughts directed only to God the Father). Why? Because you cannot grow spiritually if you’re not abiding in Christ [in fellowship with Him] when you take in bible truth.
1 John 1:9, says: “If we confess [meaning to simply name, cite or acknowledge to God the Father] our sins [known unconfessed sins], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins [known sins] and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness [all unknown and forgotten sins];” NKJV (New King James Version); we call this REBOUND; read the full doctrine as to “why” we need to use 1 John 1:9 to grow spiritually. Left click the following link to learn more and fully understand the doctrine of Rebound; which answers the question, why do I need to keep confessing my sins all the time? REBOUND
If you have never personally believed in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior (that is, believed in Him for eternal life), the issue for you is not to name your sins to God; the issue for you is to believe by faith alone in Jesus, The Christ alone for eternal life [salvation] and you will be saved [receive Eternal Life] the very micro second you believe in Him:
John 6:47 says: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” NKJV
Notice again what John 6:47 says, “he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” It doesn’t say, “will have”; it says, “has.” Therefore, the very moment you believe Jesus Christ’s promise of everlasting life, you have it (it’s really just that simple), and it can never be lost or taken away from you (John 10:28-29). Furthermore, the gift of everlasting life (also called eternal life in scripture) is available to every human being; there are absolutely no exceptions.
John 3:14-18 says: “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [Num 21:4-9], even so must the Son of Man be lifted up [the cross], that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” NKJV
Let us now bow our hearts and take a moment to prepare for learning God’s Word, if there is any known sin in your life, this is the time to just cite it privately to God the Father with your thoughts directed towards Him. With your head bowed and your eyes closed, you have total privacy in your mind and soul:

NOTES
Unlike the bible study, these notes are not just for reading without watching the video. These notes are more designed to follow along during the sermon and to bring up the “hover pop-up scripture references;” if just hover doesn’t work, do a “control-left-click,” if that doesn’t work then look them up in your Bible) when the Pastor asks everyone to turn to that passage in their bibles.
The Doctrine of the Sins of the Tongue. Point 3.
Point 1 dealt with definition and classification and we noted that first of all, sin is a violation of the law or standards of God and these divine standards are revealed in the Word of God.
(1) The area of weakness. (2) The area of strength. (3) The trends of the sin nature: (4) The lust pattern of the OSN [old sin nature].
1. First, emotional sins. For instance, sins related to fear, which includes worry and anxiety. Sins related to hatred, which includes anger, violence, and murder. Sins related to self-pity and guilt.
2. The second category of sins are mental attitude sins. These include arrogance, pride, jealousy, implacability, bitterness, vindictiveness, inordinate ambition and inordinate competition, all motivational sins, and sinful thoughts.
3. The third category is our subject verbal sins which include gossip, maligning, slander, judging, lying, and verbal deception.
4. And then the fourth category is overt sins They include chemical sins, sexual sins, criminal sins.
Now, all of this information leads us to Point 2. - The source of verbal sins.
All verbal sins originate from mental attitude sins, Which lead to motivational sins; Which lead to the sins of the tongue; Which ar
Point 3. Out of the seven worst sins from God's viewpoint, not man's but Gods' three are related to the tongue as verbal sins, Pr 6:16 19.
A right lobe that devises evil plans [anti-authority sins, conspiracy, and revolution], feet which run rapidly to evil [a trouble-maker], a false witness who utters lies [perjury], and a person who spreads strife among the brethren [gossip, slander, maligning, judging]."
Point 4. The double standard related to the sins of the tongue. Psa 12:2 "They speak emptiness one to another with flattering lips; and with a double standard they speak."
Point 5. There are Blessings From Avoiding The Sins of The Tongue.
The SOT [The Sins of The Tongue] often arises from hatred within.
The SOT's can result from idleness.
We are told that those who are classified as wicked are addicted to the sins of the tongue; Psa 50:20.
Hypocrites are addicted to the SOT; Pr 11:9.
The SOT was the main characteristic of the devil; Rev 12:10.
They who indulge in the SOT are said to be fools, Pr 10:18.
Women are especially warned against the SOT, Titus 2:3; Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips, nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good,
Our Lord Jesus Christ was exposed to the SOT constantly; Mat 26:60.
Rulers are exposed to the SOT, Jud 1:8.
Point 6. The believers attitude toward the Sins of the Tongue.
1. The believer should keep his tongue from it; 1Pe 3:10.
2. Strive to lay them it aside; Eph 4:31.
Believers should be warned against it; Tit 3:1-2.
Believers are told to return good for it; 1Co 4:13.
1Co 4:13 when we are slandered, we try to conciliate; we have become as the scum of the world, the dregs of all things, even until now.
Believers are blessed in enduring the SOT; Mat 5:11.
Mat 5:11 "Blessed are you when men cast insults at you, and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, on account of Me.
They should not be listened to; 1Sa 24:9 "And David said to Saul, Why do you listen to the words of men, saying, behold, David seeks to harm you'?"
Believers should be angry against the slanderer; Pr 25:23.
The reason is that slander separates friends; Pr 16:28; 17:9.
The believers reaction to verbal sins also should be that he realizes that the SOT produces deadly wounds; Pr 18:8; 26:22.
It causes divisions among brethren; Pr 6:19 "A false witness who utters lies, and one who spreads strife among brothers."
The SOT can even produce murder: Psa 31:13 "For I have heard the slander of many, terror is on every side; while they took counsel together against me, they schemed to take away my life."
