Ephesians 5:4 ESV
Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.
Many people enjoy dirty and crude jokes. However, a Christian must stay away from these, and instead be gracious and thankful. Whatever come out of a person's mouth is from the heart, and God will judge every idle words of men. Therefore, taming the tongue is taming the heart, and a gracious & thankful tongue signifies a similar heart, and that will save us from many evils and judgements.
