there are none, the only thing close to cussing is speaking the word and feelings of angels.

But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a man is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
~Ephesians 5:3-5 (New International Version)~

"But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken."
~Matthew 12:36 (New International Version)~

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."
~Ephesians 4:29 (New International Version)~

I hope this helps. Have a blessed day! =)

"Do not take the Lord's name in vain" Exodus chapter 20
"For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak" Psalms 59:12
"He that cometh from above is is above all: he that is of this earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all" John 3:31. Basically, Christ never spoke in earthly ways, but in heavenly ways. If we are to be like Him, we must do the same.

1 Samuel 25:22: "So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that PISSETH against the wall."

Whoops, not that one.

Matthew 21:19: "Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered."

Not that one either. Hmm.

3rd commandment in the 10 Commandments - Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain. So all these people that say "Oh, my Gxx ______" are breaking the 3rd Commandment.

Besides, God had nothing to do with the fact that a person screwed up on something.

One of the ten commandments;
Exodus 20:7
No using the name of God, your God, in curses or silly banter; God won't put up with the irreverent use of his name.

I have no idea. But...if you are saved, why would you want to say bad words? The idea is we're to be more like Him (Jesus), so that's proof enough that we should not do that.
