Now lets get started. Passage Number 1.
The first verse on the subject of Cursing is James chapter 3, verses 5 through 13. It says:
So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread
to a large forest! And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue,
which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.
For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed
by mankind; but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought
not to be so. Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water
and fresh water. Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct
that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom. Passage Number 2. The second verse in our study
of Cursing is found in Luke chapter 6, verses 27 through 30. It says:
“But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you. To him who strikes you on the cheek,
offer also the other; and from him who takes away your cloak, don’t withhold your coat also.
Give to everyone who asks you, and don’t ask him who takes away your goods to give them back again.
Passage Number 3. For our third verse, we turn in our Bible to Ephesians chapter 4,
verses 29 through 31. It reads: Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth,
but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those
who hear. Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice.
Passage Number 4. This is from Matthew chapter 15, verses 10 through 11. The scripture says:
He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand. That which enters into
the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from Romans chapter 12, verse 14. The Bible says:
Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.

Cursing. Passage Number 6 is from Galatians chapter 3, verses 10 through 14. It says:
For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, “Cursed is
everyone who doesn’t continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.”
Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, “The righteous will live
by faith.” The law is not of faith, but, “The man who does them will live by them.” Christ
redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written,
“Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,” that the blessing of Abraham might come on
the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Passage Number 7. The seventh verse is found in Genesis chapter 3,
verses 14 through 19. The Bible says: Yahweh God said to the serpent, “Because
you have done this, you are cursed above all livestock, and above every animal of the field.
You shall go on your belly and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring.
He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.” To the woman he said, “I will greatly
multiply your pain in childbirth. You will bear children in pain. Your desire will be for your
husband, and he will rule over you.” To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to your wife’s
voice, and have eaten from the tree, about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’
the ground is cursed for your sake. You will eat from it with much labor all the days of your life.
It will yield thorns and thistles to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
You will eat bread by the sweat of your face until you return to the ground,
for you were taken out of it. For you are dust, and you shall return to dust.”
Passage Number 8. The eighth verse on the subject of Cursing is from Deuteronomy chapter 11,
verses 26 through 29. It reads: Behold, I set before you today a blessing
and a curse: the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, which I command
you today; and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, but turn
away out of the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
It shall happen, when Yahweh your God brings you into the land that you go to possess,
that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
Passage Number 9. Our ninth verse is from Matthew chapter 5,
verses 33 through 37. The passage states: “Again you have heard that it was said to
the ancient ones, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’ but I
tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth,
for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great
King. Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black.
But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.
Passage Number 10. Our tenth and final verse on the subject of Cursing is from Genesis chapter 12,
verses 2 through 3. It says: I will make of you a great nation.
I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who treats you with contempt. All the families
of the earth will be blessed through you.” This concludes our Bible study on the topic of Cursing.
