The New life In Christ: Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. James 4:10.

That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud

But gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6.

Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.

The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person…and is itself set on fire by hell. James 3:5-6.

Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing….this should not be. James 3:10.

For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. James 2:10. Amen.
