We as Christians have the gift of Spiritual Discernment for a reason. Yet never is one to condemn another as to say they are hopeless of salvation that is'nt our job. We rather are called to share the good news (Gospel), the fact that salvation is open to whomsoever would.

Matthew 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Lashon Hara (true, evil speech about a person with the aim of doing them harm rather than to build them up) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lashon_hara 

Lashon Hara is usually considered a sin, however accusations are called for when one insists on transgression and refuses to Hear the Word of the LORD in relation to their current fault.

Matt. 18:15-17 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

Rom.16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them

(We are called to be instruments of the Holy Spirit. Those that use their bodies as instruments of fornication instead are not to be counted amoung the congregation of the church)

1 Cor.5:1-13 speaks about those in the congregation that insist on being vessels fornication.

1 cor.5:4-5 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one unto Satan (accuser) for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 

Hotzaat shem ra- slander of someone based on lies.Also called: Hotzaat Diba, false, derogatory, slanderous or defamatory speech/ rekhilut - talesbearer (Lev.19:16)

 Lashon Hara depends on intent. LAshon hara insu only deceptive speech Lashon Hara can be truth given with evil intent.

Pro.6:12-15 

 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

16-35 

These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 

A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

20 My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. 

22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adultress will hunt for the precious life.

27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

Be set apart

Eph. 5:3-4 (KJV) But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

Jas.3:8-10 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

 

[William H.]

Hosea 14:2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.

Compare to Heb.13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

^Jer.3:2-11

²For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. ³Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. ⁴Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. ⁵Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! ⁶And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. ⁷For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: ⁸But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. ⁹Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.  ¹⁰Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. ¹¹Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?

Zecharias spoke doubt to Gabriel after Gabriel spoke the WORD of God unto him. Lk.1:18-20 After zech was told him and Elizabeth would bare John he responded with "Wherebyshall I know this?" Gabreil's responce was to mute Zech until it came to pass and as it came to Pass Zech spoke to say that the childs name would be John. No room for Doubt!

Today alot of people who lay hands on others know the importance of speaking with Faith! You dont speak negatives and look for postives. Your faith and Beliefs have effects on you and your surroundings, just as lack of faith and disbelief.

Example: If one invites a unclean spirit in and embraces it what good would it do to try and exercise it. You cant help someone who doesnt want to help themselves.
