It’s not okay to label yourself as the cussing Christian, The cussing minister etc. This is one i see a lot with those who say they believe. Yes we all have different paths and things will take time but we are to lead by example.
“From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled; with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied. The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.”
Proverbs 18:20-21 NIV
Stop picking and choosing when you want to live by Gods word. Stop being deceived by those who teach his word and don’t bear good fruit. The Holy spirit God has given us to convict us of sin to REPENT! Repentance is to turn away from, to change. God convicts us because he loves us. Just like parents correct their children out of love because you don’t want to see them suffer, the same way God doesn’t want us to suffer from lack of knowledge.
When you start to normalize your sin and make excuses for it, you’re ignoring your spiritual conscience or lacking knowledge from Gods word.
“In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.”
Titus 2:7-8 NIV
Stop normalizing being lukewarm Christians and normalize addressing your convictions to walk with the Holy Spirit.
