CXXII Apparel as a christian apparel brand is passionate about encouraging others and helping them see how much God loves them and that there are truths found in Gods word that you can rely on in your daily life.
God tells us in His Word that the tongue has incredible power. We can use our tongue to encourage and bless one another or we can use our tongue to hurt one another or even make ourselves have a bad reputation.
Two of the Ten Commandments speak specifically about sins committed with the tongue: using the Lords name in vain, and bearing false witness against someone else (Exodus 20:7, 16.) Also, Jesus Himself warned us about the dangers of using our tongue rashly. Other sins of the tongue include boasting, licentious language, being critical, double-tongued, explosive uncontrolled angry words, hateful speech, or purposefully using obscure words to hide on a significant issue.
We want to encourage you to use pick up your Bible and highlight these verses in it and read God's word each day so you can find truths and be able to stay strong in the faith.
