Misusing speech can lead to harm and division among others, as highlighted in James 1:26, which warns that if we think we are religious but do not control our tongues, we deceive ourselves. Psalm 15:3 emphasizes the importance of being respectful and kind with our words, showing that our speech should reflect love and integrity. By aligning our speech with these values, we can foster unity and demonstrate true devotion to Jehovah.
Why should we avoid misusing the gift of speech? (James 1:26)Most of the requirements listed in Psalm 15 are related to how we treat others. Psalm 15:3 states that a guest in Jehovah’s tent “does not slander with his tongue, he does nothing bad to his neighbor, and he does not defame his friends.” Misusing our speech in such ways could cause serious harm to others and disqualify us from being guests in Jehovah’s tent.—Read James 1:26.
