I know that there is some gossip “exception clause” as per online forums in the NT, I just can’t for the life of me remember where it is.

I’m confused on what you are trying to say? What does, “in the NT” mean? I think we should hold to scripture, not exception clauses. It’s one thing to postulate and give one’s opinion of what may happen, but to pass along information from suspect sources is dangerously close if not over the “gossip” line.

I think if you pry open his mouth you will see his tongue safely tucked away into his cheek. :)

You got it!

I think this is what every one meant.

I linked this in another post, but thought it might have even more relevance in the discussion on gossip going on here. The article is titled “When to Be a Tattletale?” http://bancroftbaptist.blogspot.com/

I believe both gossip and legitimate warnings have been posted, but let this be a reminder to all of us to be careful to evaluate what we pass along especially considering that we no longer have to go house to house to distribute information.
