Ephesians 4:29-31

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Ephesians 4:29-31. But that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

Why does the apostle say clamor? Why. because when people are angry they generally talk very loud, and I believe that if persons would correct their tone of voice and resolve that they will not speak above their usual tone when they feel heated and provoked, it would greatly assist to check the abolition of passion. So the apostle puts in, "Let all bitterness and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and loud talking - all clamor and evil speaking - be put away from you with all malice."
