WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT GOSSIP
(1 Peter 4:15) it puts gossip in the same category as thievery and murder
Of gossipers in Jesus' day it says… "13 At the same time they also learn to be unoccupied, gadding about to the houses; yes, not only unoccupied, but also gossipers and meddlers in other people's affairs, talking of things they ought not. "(1 Timothy 5:13)
(James 3:5)
5 So, too, the tongue is a little member and yet makes great brags. Look! How
little a fire it takes to set so great a woodland on fire!
And even LISTENING to gossip can be dangerous.
(Proverbs 17:4) 4 The evildoer is paying attention to the lip of hurtfulness. A falsifier is giving ear to the tongue causing adversities
