Matthew 5:33-37

Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.' But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

It is difficult not to color our statements with an oath to give it 'oompf.' But God commands us not to. Not only that, we are told that anything more than 'yes' and 'no' are from the evil one. That fact alone should help motivate us to keep our speech simple and oath free!
