James 3:1
The Control of the Tongue
SUMMARY OF JAMES 3: Aspiring to Teachership. The Power of the Tongue.
Its Untamable Nature. Its Contradictory Uses. Wisdom Shown in Its
Proper Control. The Wisdom from Above Described.
My brethren, be not many masters. Do not many of you seek to be
teachers. The office of public teaching in the church is meant.
Knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. Those
who profess to teach others will be judged more strictly than those of
humbler professions. See Matthew 7:1. Of those who have much, much is
required. See Luke 12:48. A lesson is to be given on the tongue. He
who teaches will be held strictly to account for the manner in which he
uses it.
