On the third day He will raise us up,

That we may live in His sight.

The Untamed Tongue

The UnTamed Tongue

James 3:5-6

 5 Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! 6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.

Proverbs 12:18

18 There is one who speaks like the piercings of a sword,

But the tongue of the wise promotes health.

2 The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly,

But the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness.

James 3:8-10

8 But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our YAH and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of YAH. 10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.
