I said, "I will guard my ways that I may not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth as a muzzle while the wicked are in my presence. Psalm 39:1
We should guard our hearts, guard our minds, and that will be a guard to the things we say. Our defiled spirit causes us to sin with our tongue. Christ's righteousness living in us is like a internal muzzle. We able to measure our responses in the world. No one wants to be around a "wild dog" without a muzzle. Neither does anyone want to be attacked by a so-called "wild Christian", biting their legs. James 3, tells us that the tongue can be a fire that sets the world ablaze. May it never be our tongue.
