James Chapter 3 Bible Study | Book of James Series

Words and wisdom are the focus of chapter 3. Uncontrolled words and the wisdom of the world always lead to destruction.

James says that we should control our tongues. He then acknowledges that this is impossible. The difference between the exhortation and the execution is our reliance upon God.

The words we use are spiritually charged. They reflect our thoughts, which filter through wisdom, which is informed by and aligned two one of two kingdoms: heaven or hell. Our words points others towards the destination from which they originate. We use our words inside our spheres that God has given us for the advancement the kingdom.

To tame our tongues, we must tame out hearts, and only Jesus can do this for us.

Big idea: "If you want to see your heart, watch your tongue."
