The Tongue by Minister Bwayos (James3:6 ff)


James 3:6 KJV
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.
We learn that the tongue is fire and that it's a world of iniquity.
However, its also a member of one's body.
Men think that its hard to tame their tongues and so they use it as an excuse to sin. (James 3:8 KJV)
But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
The bible says that out of the tongue proceedeth blessings and curses.
It also further goes on to tell us these things ought not to be.
(James 3:10 KJV)
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. 
Child of God, these things ought not so to be.
There's no way a fountain can flow both sweet and bitter water.
There's no way a mango tree can bear pumpkins (kizibu)
(James 3:11-12 KJV) 

Does a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
Same applies to us members of the body of Christ.
We're supposed to produce living streams, blessings , saltiness and light.
Our tongues should not subject to the standards of this world.
For we are born of the incorruptible seed.

"IF IT WON'T BLESS OR MAKE SENSE TO SOME ONE,
KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!!!"

Scripture Reference:
James3:5-12
Matthew5:13
Colossians4:6

Have a fruitful day!
