Taking the trash out of the talk

TAKING THE TRASH OUT OF THE TALK

2 WE STUBLE IN MANY WAYS. IF ANYONE IS NEVER AT FAULT IN WHAT HE SAYS, HE IS

A PERFECT MAN, ABLE TO KEEP HIS WHOLE BODY AT CHECK.3 WHEN WE PUT BIT INTO THE MOUTH OF HORSES TO MAKE THEM

OBEY US, WE CAN TURN THE WHOLE ANIMAL. 4OR TAKE A LARGE SHIP FOR

EXAMPLE. ALTHOUGH THEY ARE SO LARGE AND DRIVEN BY STRONG WINDS, THEY ARE

STEERED BY A VERY SMALL RUDDER WHEREVER THE PILOTS WANTS TO GO.

5 LIKEWISE THE TONGUE IS ASMALL PART OF THE BODY , BUT IT MAKES A GREAT

BOAST. CONSIDER A GREAT FOREST FIRE IS SET BY A SMALL SPARK. 6 THE TONGUE ALSO IS A FIRE, A WORLD OF EVIL AMONG THE PARTS OF THE BODY. IT CORRUPTS THE WHOLE PERSON, SETS THE WHOLE COURSE OF HIS LIFE ON FIRE, AND IS

ITSELFSET ON FIRE BY HELL.

7 ALL KINDS OF ANIMALS, BIRDS, REPTILES AND CREATURES OF THE SEA ARE BIENG TAMED OR HAVE BEEN TAMED BY MAN,

8BUT NO MAN CAN TAME THE TONGUE. IT IS A RESTLESS EVIL, FULL OF POISON.

9WITH THE TONGUE WE PRAISE OUR LORD AND THE FATHER, AND WITH IT WE CURSE

MEN, WHO HAD BEEN MADE IN GOD’S LIKENESS.

10 OUT OF THE SAME MOUTH COME PRAISE AND CURSING. MY BORTHERS, THIS SHOULD

NOT BE.

JAMES 3:2-10
