* I sought out the etymology of the phrase - "Cat got your tongue?"
* All I discovered was a warning that "curiosity killed the cat!"
* There are many theories as to the phrases origin but here are a couple:
#.
Middle East: as a punishment liars had their tongues ripped out and fed to the king's cat!
#.
For fear of being punished with a cat-o-nine-tails a victim would be paralyzed to silence.
* There is no shortage of theories but there is a common theme.
Cat's should be feared and the tongue has the potential to do some pretty big damage.
* If we are going to be Chrsitians of character - if we are going to move forward as a church there are some non-negotiables.
* We need not fear the cat getting ahold of our tongue but we do need to be very aware that the devil may get ahold of it.
Unfortunately this does not lead us to silence but instead leads us to use our tongues for evil.
* James 3:1-8
