The Tongue Talks

James 3:1-5

James 3

"NOT MANY [of you] should become teachers (self-constituted censors and reprovers of others), my brethren, for you know that we [teachers] will be judged by a higher standard and with greater severity [than other people; thus we assume the greater accountability and the more condemnation].

For we all often stumble and fall and offend in many things. And if anyone does not offend in speech [never says the wrong things], he is a fully developed character and a perfect man, able to control his whole body and to curb his entire nature.

If we set bits in the horses’ mouths to make them obey us, we can turn their whole bodies about.

Likewise, look at the ships: though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the impulse of the helmsman determines.

Even so the tongue is a little member, and it can boast of great things. See how much wood or how great a forest a tiny spark can set ablaze!"

Throughout my ministry To Jesus, and studying The Word, Led By His Spirit, Who baptized me Into Himself, with The Evidence of speaking In His Language, using my faith that He Is The Giver of All Good Things.... Have by that same faith,  spoke to many individuals concerning The Spirit of Truth...

Now you ask, what Is The Spirit of Truth? In this passage, James, Jesus' brother was saying not many should jump out there wanting to be a teacher of Truth, if you are not yourself living by His Truth...

Makes since to me... Truth Is what God meant when He Spoke by The Holy Spirit out of men and women who believed He was Speaking, and He Backed Himself up By sending The Spirit of Truth and fulfilling It... Which, is Jesus His Only Begotten from His Seed... Placed into Mary's egg By The Spirit of Truth, and she conceived and brought forth The Truth, The Life, The Way, The Door, The Son of God, The Son of man, The Only Salvation of God's Word, The Word, and The Prince of Peace!
