Yes We are the soul within the body, higher than the body is the mind and higher than the mind is the intelligence and higher than that is the soul. We as spirit souls are to use our God given intelligence to control the mind and control our actions to right action and speech. Otherwise we are not very advanced spiritually.We do get bad karma for causing others mental and emotional anguish with our words. For more info on this topic go to harekrishnatemple.com Read Bhagavad Gita as it is By Bhaktivedanta PRabhupada- tells how to control the mind and word.

Man has been sinful from his youth,Only the spirit of God can change them. If you had a habit of any kind that you like to do and you practiced this habit since you were very young.God says man is born in sin! It would be not by your power nor your might but by the spirit of God. It is a gradual change and Satan does not tempt you with things you never done or do not like to do. He temps you with the things you where active with.Gods love and what he does for us changes us and we turn away from it because we learn a love that surpasses all our natural understanding we began to seek the spiritual things. By his loving spirit and not giving up but seeking him daily asking for help he changes us daily min by min. Soon we do not act the way we use to talk the way we use to we are a new creature. We began to speak kind words of wisdom the way the spirit inside us teaches us.

When we submit our bodies and purpose in our hearts to not let our members become istruments of unrighteousness, yes we can bring our tongues under control. It also requires putting your spirit in front of our feelings. When we move on emotions, we say the first thing that comes out. When we move by our spirit, we learn to walk in peace and not strife. For me, I had to learn to stop gossipping and stop being so sarcastic.

The only way I know how to answer this is to say that if you are raised to be kind and not use abusive language, that is the way you will be with your own family and others.

Amen. Many professed Christians come on here and have the same spirit as those who deny Christ in word. It is in our control to yield to Christ, and allow Him to control our acts. But many professed Christians deny Christ in act, as those who genuinely deny Him in word. Who is the more guilty? The hypocrite, or the genuine?

When I lose temper with someone, my tongue is not in my control and I may become abusive orally. But on other times, I am as sweet as a lark.....

Yes, it's really under our control.
Do you talk to your mother the way you talk to you friends?
Do you talk to a toddler the way you talk to your friends?
Do you talk to your grandmother the way you talk to a toddler?
Our language is dictated by the audience.
In the scriptures, it's referred to as "temperance,"
which is self control.
