The Power of Your Words

To be like Christ, we should talk like Jesus. Every word that He spoke was EXACTLY what God wanted Him to say. How about your words? Do they always honor God? Do you realize the power of the words that you say? In this message entitled The Power of Your Words, we focus on Colossians 4:6 and learn some powerful truths about our words. The Bible has lots to say about words and about language, from Adam & Eve to the Tower of Babel to the Day of Pentecost in Acts 2 to Revelation. There is much to learn. Jesus is the Word who became flesh. James speaks about the challenge of controlling our tongue. Wow! There's a lot to say... Listen here: http://www.lpbaptist.org/ThePowerOfYourWords.mp3
