Controlling your tongue

There are times we want to tell someone off ... but we know we shouldn't!

 

This Podcast shows us examples of controlling our tongue in ways that really work by turning to God.

 

==

 

James 3:5-10  Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

 

6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

 

7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:

 

8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 

 

9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.

 

10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. 

 

 

James 1:26  If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. 

 

 

Ephesians 4:29  Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
