“godless chatter” [I Timothy 6:20(RSV)]
November 18, 2024
“godless chatter”. Some people’s tongue is like a machine that never stops. They go on like a car without brakes rolling downhill. And incessant chatter easily resorts to godlessness. The godly man examines his words before he speaks them.
He stops speaking before he needs to apologise for what he has said.
Small talk is shallow talk and does not allow for serious discussion. There are a hundred and one subjects the chatterer will try before he allows you to dwell on anything of great import.
It does serve to show the great value of godly conversation when we can get away from the incessant prattle of the chatterer.
Speak often if you must, but let it be on the things that matter.
