BIBLE BACKBITING VERSES
WHAT IS BACKBITING IN THE BIBLE MEANING
Let us begin our study, shall we? Backbiting in the Bible is slandering or speaking badly of a person behind that person's back. Have you had this happen to you? You know ... Find out that someone is whispering against you behind your back and they are a CHRISTIAN? It is very hurtful and has been causing divisions in the Church for centuries. Let us look at what the Bible says about backbiting ...
|
Psalms 15:1-3
Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall
dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly,
and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in
his heart. He that
BACKBITETH NOT with his
tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh
up a reproach against his neighbour. |
It says that those who backbite
will NOT abide (live) in God's Holy Hill.
These backbiters have been in the Church from the beginning
...
|
2 Corinthians 12:20
For I
fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such
as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such
as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings,
wraths, strifes,
BACKBITINGS,
whisperings, swellings, tumults ...
|
What does God think of these
backbiters?
|
Romans 1:28-32
And even as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind,
to do those things which are not convenient; Being
filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of
envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
BACKBITERS, haters of
God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil
things, disobedient to parents, Without
understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural
affection, implacable, unmerciful:
WHO KNOWING THE JUDGMENT OF GOD THAT THEY WHICH
COMMIT SUCH THINGS ARE WORTHY OF DEATH NOT ONLY DO
THE SAME BUT HAVE PLEASURE IN THEM THAT DO THEM.
|
BIBLE BACKBITING SCRIPTURE
WHAT IS BACKBITING IN THE BIBLE CONCERN
So, those who choose to backbite are
hurting their own souls.
I am oft times saddened to see CHRISTIANS
backbiting against fellow Christians.
In
fact, tho Christianity Oasis has one of the most Spirit and
Peace filled Forums and Chat rooms on the Internet, we too
have those who CHOOSE to do this, KNOWING it is against the
will of GOD and contrary to the teachings of JESUS.
How
can one choose to do this? How can one SAY they love God and
hate their brother?
|
1 John 4:20
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he
is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom
he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not
seen? And this commandment have we from him, That he
who loveth God love his brother also. |
Do you think
Jesus cries when He sees Christians doing this to one
another?
How
can one ignore the pleas of JESUS to LOVE one another after
Jesus died for us.
NO ...
He SUFFERED and THEN endured the most painful death most can
fathom for us:
|
Matthew 26:67
Then did they spit in His face, and buffeted Him;
and others smote Him with the palms of their hands
... |
My
fellow Christian ... They beat, hit and whipped OUR Lord
severely for US to have an opportunity at Salvation.
BIBLE BACKBITING WARNING
WHAT IS BACKBITING IN THE BIBLE DANGER
If
JESUS took this type of abuse for us ... Can we not be more
understanding of our fellow Christians and choose to forgive
when we feel insulted or disrespected by another Christian
as compared to running off in secret and backbiting?
Jesus
asked that we LOVE one another as He loved us:
|
John 15:12
This is my
commandment, That ye love one another, as I have
loved you.
|
|
John 13:34-35
A new
commandment I give unto you, That ye love one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one
another. By this shall all men know that ye are my
disciples, if ye have love one to another.
|
So,
KNOWING that Jesus asked us to LOVE ONE ANOTHER ...
Why would CHRISTIANS still backbite?
Backbiting Bible verse Scripture shares why these souls choose to do this backbiting, KNOWING it is wrong?
It is OBVIOUS
that this type of thing is of Satan and his intent is to
DIVIDE the Church of God by removing LOVE from the Church ...
|
Matthew 12:25
And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto
them,
Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to
desolation; and every city or house divided against
itself shall not stand ... |
Most
do this backbiting because they feel they were hurt by
someone so they gather their friends and backbite ...
The
Bible addressed this issue ... Even if they did feel hurt by
another they are supposed to allow GOD to deal with it.
|
Romans 12:17-21
Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide
things honest in the sight of all men. If it be
possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably
with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves,
but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written,
Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he
thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt
heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of
evil, but overcome evil with good. |
BIBLE BACKBITING STUDY ON THE ENEMY
WHAT IS BACKBITING IN THE BIBLE WHISPERS
You know what my friend ...
Over the many years that I have been serving the Lord ... I
have found that Satan’s best method of communicating with
God’s people as to plant his seeds of deceit, is by using
human whisperers and backbiting ...
|
Proverbs 16:28
A froward man soweth strife: and a WHISPERER separateth chief friends. |
Do you have friends that try
and get you to join in on backbiting? Remember the Backbiting Bible verse TRUTH.
If you ever find yourself in the shadows backbiting with someone about others ...
WALK AWAY IMMEDIATELY.
Even if it is a friend who begins backbiting
to you about someone else, just let em know they should
forgive and Love all and get outta there before the enemy of
your soul runs up to God and points at you.
|
Revelation 12:10
... for the accuser of our brethren is cast down,
which accused them before our God day and night. |
Do as Jesus did when Satan was whispering to
Him when Jesus was being tempted in the wilderness for 40
days and tell the TRUTH.
It is WRONG to backbite and you will not take
part in SATAN’S PLOT.
Choose to SUBMIT to the rules God has laid
down regarding Love and forgiveness ...
|
James 4:7
Submit yourselves
therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee
from you. |
BIBLE BACKBITING SECRET
WHAT IS BACKBITING IN THE BIBLE CURE
The Bible said “The devil will flee” ... That is because the person who is backbiting IS being inspired by Satan who is trying to draw you into the shadows as to avoid the light of TRUTH. Tell them you want no part of the enemy of your soul using them to try and influence you
Just as when Jesus told Peter ... Get thee behind me Satan.
|
Matthew 16:23
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind
me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou
savourest not the things that be of God, but those
that be of men. |
Satan
inspired Peter to say something to Jesus. Jesus called out Satan who was speaking thru Peter.
"Get thee behind me, Satan."
The Backbiting in the Bible study asking what is backbiting reveals that it is not the person who is backbiting that is the root or origin, but rather the enemy of our soul having the person do it. It is Satan. So, you must try and reach your friend with Truth. Not just adhere to the backbiting just because it is a friend. Remember to always put God first, then family then friends then whatever. Correct and reprove your friend. If you are a true friend.
|
Ephesians 5:9-12
(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and
righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto
the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works
of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even
to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. |
The definition of reprove is convey one’s disapproval; to rebuke, especially in a gentle, sweet, kind tone. So, in a kind and gentle manner let the person know the Truth and that you will take no part in it. You are RE-PROVING the matter as we are taught to prove all things:
There is a Promise of protection against backbiting in the Bible. What is backbiting gain for the whisperer? You should rather choose to listen to the
Spirit of Truth ...
|
Ephesians 6:11-17
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able
to stand against the wiles of the devil.
FOR WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH
AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES, AGAINST POWERS
AGAINST RULERS OF DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD AGAINST SPIRITUAL
WICKEDNESS in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole
armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil
day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having
your loins girt about with TRUTH, and having on the
breastplate of RIGHTEOUSNESS; And your feet shod with the
preparation of the GOSPEL OF PEACE; Above all, taking the
shield of FAITH, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all
the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of
SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the WORD OF
GOD: Praying always with all PRAYER and supplication in the
Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints ...
|
