We all have things we have said that we wish we could have taken back. Good news is that Jesus remembers no wrong if we repent and ask for forgiveness.
What are some things you do to keep from speaking careless words?

Be careful what you say!
Jesus tells us in the book of Matthew 12: 36I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, 37for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."
Is it wrong to lend money?
In Chapter 15 of Psalms, David writes to God questioning the qualifications someone might have to dwell on His Holy hill (e.i. be in good standing before the Lord). Clearly David gives his opinion (inspired by God) and states that we should not lend money with interest. Let's take a look at what the Bible says as a whole in these references below.
After reading these what is your opinion, and is David speaking to everyone?
Is money lending against our religion?
I will let you know what the bible says on these controversial issues soon, stay tuned!

Genesis 16:1-18:15 Sarai and Hagar
God through Moses in these chapter shows us how once Sarai and Abram committed their "whole" lives to God he then was able to change their names to Sarah (Princess) and Abraham (the father of a multitude).
Even though your name was not changed when you committed your life to Christ, how were you changed in other ways?

Tower of Babel
In Genesis 11:1 Moses tells us that the "whole earth had one language and the same words." Then in 11:6 we see the Lord say, "And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them."
OK Bible Students! Explain how v7 and v8 would have put a stop to mans plans. Be specific.
