If you just look upon a woman and lust it is, so probably thinking cuss words would be a sin too!

A curse is technically the speaking forth of something to suffer. And it is the same spirit when we speak to something and label it a negative name, when it actually is not so. Similarly, when people say GOD BLESS YOU, it is a bl3essing put towards someone that through our proclamation of it we are changing that person's normal experience to be a blessed one from God

Just a thought, anyway.

Wonderful!!:highfive

Who decided cuss words would be just that. . .cuss words? I mean, who heard a word and decided 'hmm, I think that will be a cuss word' and people throughout the world, generation after generation would continue to view it as such? Who has that kind of influence? :dunno


My hubby and I have had this conversation. In other countries and other times, the words that we have "labeled" are just that.....words.

Well, I do...death and life lie in the POWER of the tongue!!

I need more clues.I believe people can war you in prayer.They pray their will on you instead of Gods.It causes you to war a spirit of witchcraft.

When I was growing up - before I was even a teen - we went to a Missionary Church (definately not Apostolic). In that church, words like "gosh" and "shoot" were known as "MINCED OATHS" and we were in as much trouble for using those as were for using the words that they replaced.

I don't have big problems with any of the words that have been brought up here so far. But I have to admit, there are words being used out there now that I cannot abide!! (like the word that starts with S, which replaces the word that starts with F) <--Admin, can I can this???
