Teachers are held to a stricter judgment.
My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
James 1
Matt 5:1
Our words direct our life.
For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.
Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.
Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.
Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
James
BOAT AND BIT - rudder steers ship/bit steers horse
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Ill - Peter Daniels
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.
Our mouths are meant for blessing
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
Where do wars and fights come from
How do I grab hold of this power to speak life?
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
