Because the tongue is
the index of the heart, because “out of the fulness of the heart the
mouth speaketh,” therefore the unbridled tongue, speaking selfishly,
enviously, bitterly, boastfully, slanderously, proves that the heart
from whose fulness these overflow is unsanctified unholy, grievously
lacking of the spirit of Christ; hence, whatever religion it may
have attained is thus far vain, as that heart is not saved, nor in a
salvable condition. But the Good Physician has pointed out antidotes
for soul-poisoning—medicines which, if properly taken according to
directions, will sweeten the bitter
heart. |
