We don't need to water down the message...

The tongue of the wise makes knowledge acceptable, But the mouth of fools spouts folly. Proverbs 15:2

The word for acceptable here is yaw-tab' which means: A primitive root; to be (causatively) make well, literally (sound, beautiful) or figuratively (happy, successful, right): - be accepted, amend, use aright, benefit, be (make) better, seem best, make cheerful, be comely, + be content, diligent (-ly), dress, earnestly, find favour, give, be glad, do (be, make) good ([-ness]), be (make) merry, please (+ well), shew more [kindness], skilfully, X very small, surely, make sweet, thoroughly, tire, trim, very, be (can, deal, entreat, go, have) well [said, seen ].


We do not need to water down the message in God's Word. Instead, we need to share it boldly and season it (spice it up) with love and patience.
