10 Reasons Why I Swear
1. It pleases mother so much.
2. It is a fine mark of manliness.
3. It proves I have self control.
4. It indicates how clearly my mind operates.
5. It makes my conversation so pleasing to everybody.
6. It leaves no doubt in anyone's mind as to my good breeding.
7. It impresses people that I have more than ordinary education.
8. It is an unmistakable sign of culture and refinement.
9. It makes me a very desirable personality among women and children and in respectable
society.
10. It is my way of honoring God who said: "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in
vain." "SWEARING IS JUST A HABIT WITH ME!" Sure.
Like beating your wife, robbing banks or poisoning babies, Your favorite excuse
is- "I DON'T MEAN ANYTHING BY IT!" Tell
that to the judge the next time you're arrested for speeding! Explain to him,
"It's just a habit with me," Try coming in to work drunk for a month.
Re- mind your boss that "I don't mean anything by it. It's just a habit
with me." YOU CAN'T FOOL GOD!
If you can't kid the judge; if you can't fool your boss; how do you think you
can fool God?-It is written, "Swear not at all". (Matt. 5:34). God
says, "Be not deceived, God is not mocked." (Gal. 6:7) "The Lord
will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain", (Ex, 20:7) HOW
TO QUIT Pray, right now. Ask God to forgive you for your
wickedness and open your heart to the Son of God, Jesus Christ. Ask Him to
cleanse you, to save your soul, and make you a real Christian. Read your Bible
daily and urge others to give their hearts to Christ. from The
