An honest answer is the sign of a true friendship. In the end, people appreciate frankness more than flattery. Someone who holds back the truth causes trouble. Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal . Some people like to make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise soothe and heal .
Gentle words cause life and health.
Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit . Anyone who says he is a Christian but doesn't control his sharp tongue is just fooling himself, and his religion isn't worth much.
