I had shared something to someone whom i call a trusted friend .I didn't think it was harmful, as what I shared was true.So this friend of mine went and spread false information of what I said ,it wasn't loving from her side she didn't protect me,I don't think that she's a good friend. I learned my lesson always to keep quiet and not trust anyone easily. If they gossip to you about other's ,they'll gossip to others about you.

Gossiping is akin to giving the stranger on the subway a blue job after they reveal themselves to you. That is what you are doing in essence when you take the bait of the gossiper who wants to spiritually degrade you. This is a war of spirit, people. Sharpen your rusty swords and be vigilant. God will test you in things that seem insignificant. Do not be caught off guard!!

Gossip is bad but you also have to be able to vent at times. I think we have to find be able to discern between the two.

Gossip is considered one of the major sin in Islam. The Prophet Muhammad once asked his followers, “Do you know what backbiting is?” They said, “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He continued, “Saying something about your brother that he dislikes.” Someone then asked, “What if what I say about my brother is true?” The Prophet Muhammad responded: “If what you say is true then you have backbitten about him, and if it is not true, then you have slandered him.”

I entertained it when I was fairly new to the faith with someone that had treated our son badly, this took place when we relied on Leadership to help us understand the Word assuming they were mature because of the time they have been in the faith, not realizing they were leading us astray. We attended Life Group etc genuinely hungry for the Word of God. Leadership justified their gossip by saying my family just wasn’t ready lol The Lord removed us from that unbiblical church and as we grew in the word I began to read more commentaries & apply the SOAP method. It actually became very insightful & clear. It’s very humbling to remember how much growth has taken place in the last year. Be careful if you are a new convert let it not discourage your relationship with Christ. 🙏🏽🎚️

Believe me, the people that gossip don't realize that there are more people talking about them, than the person they are talking about. It's a form of insecurity, poor self esteem, and destructive. We all have been guilty of it at some point in our life. I make it a point to stay away from people who gossip.

Guard your heart and tongue. Don’t let these things into your system as it can pollute your precious spirit and soul. God wants to protect us (our heart, soul, mind) from these things, which is why He gave us the scriptures as guidance. Proverbs 20:19 - “He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets, therefore do not associate with a gossip.” “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.”

Gossipers want you to submit to their 666 intellect, which is a surrender to the devil. In a spiritual sense, you are drinking toilet water and polluting your soul with filth. You are also being tested. Put your trust in God instead of trusting someone else's thoughts.

I have found that people enjoy talking about their children. Especially if I am with an intimidating person, and I don't know what to talk about, asking about their children gets them to be relaxed and themselves: how many kids do you have? How old are they? Are they going to school (what is their major) or working on their career. If I am talking to kids, asking what their favorite subject in school can be a dead end. If that's the case ask them what their least favorite subject it. They LOVE complaining about school.

Nah. Where were you born is question often about distant pass and not everyone want to be associated with place of birth because.. they are not that place! People often start changing conversation about place of your birth while you want to talk about books shows weather etc. nope! Childhood memory😂 hah dude it’s too intense, emotional and definitely not an ice breaker for a stranger! Besides too many people don’t have ANY truly happy moments.. and have but they finished and people feel sad because it’s connected to loss and stuff. It’s very intimate question imo. The worst job! Seriously? Ok here the questions should be asked instead of: 1. What are you currently reading? 2. What’s your favourite tv show you would go back any time? 3. What’s your most memorable travel experience and why? Don’t his people’s past it’s often shitty. Ask about what in their hands now!
@krystalharris79Ай бұрын
@AnuRadha-tc4zb I like your questions too - but in addition to the suggested questions from this video! We can't assume other people's lives and pasts are the same as ours - and see them through the filter we see our lives through. We should give others a chance to be themselves. Not versions we think we see of them. Out of curiosity, why would you assume a *favourite* memory from childhood would be about unhappy memories, or "connected to loss and stuff"? Most people understand favourite means something positive - and it should not make them feel any sadness. Maybe nostalgic, but that's not always a bad thing. You seem to have focused on only on the word "memory", not "favourite", so any associated negativity is interesting in how it's a little revealing about you. And a favourite memory is not that intimate, and can very definitely be a fun ice-breaker! As worst job can be! If I told you my worst job ever was when I was worm-picker, don't you think it could lead to a funny conversation? Wouldn't you want to know why I was picking worms? And what that job was like? Maybe not. Maybe it would just be a dumb boring thing to tell you. And then back to the punch bowl I would go! LOL Besides all that, one always has the option to self-censor and not share intimate details until they're more comfortable with people. The more you chat, the less of a stranger people generally become. And if you feel uncomfortable with someone, even talking about books, shows, music, weather, travels - none of it will be good! Just asking directions would probably be a bad experience! Just because you had a shitty background doesn't mean everyone you meet did too. Sometimes what's in a person's hands now is shitty, and their past is what they wish they could go back to, so they might love to reminisce and talk about it!

Two of my friends were gossiping about each other. Their grievances with eachother were minor but both of them came to me and others in our group to try and talk down on the other. I defended the unpresent person both times and and said they should keep their opinions to themselves. They were initially mad at me until later when they learned I was defending them when the group went against them. Eliminating gossip from your life can cause conflict but will help your relationships in the long run.
