AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 12:36 "But I tell you, on the day of judgment people will have to give an accounting for every careless or useless word they speak. |
Bible Question: Will believers give an accounting of "every careless word" at the Judgment Seat of Christ? Are careless words "sin?" |
Bible Answer: Col 3:17 Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father. With the words from Jesus and these words from Paul, it does seem the Bible is very clear that we as God's people should strive for this as a high priority in our lives. But I think that's also where Grace comes in, to make up for our shortcomings. As long as we really are genuinely giving God our very best, He'll meet us to make up the balance. Blessings to you.
