James 3:1-3

Taming the Tongue 1Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.

2We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check. 3When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal.
