It is very power

Basically this is saying don 'nt be a Fake be a true believer stop your lying misusing Jesus word to make your self feel good on this earth do what the word say not what the devil speaks to u remember the devil never tell u nothing godly to do its always worldly although the devil can change to the angle of light he does that to fool u test the spirit to see if it be of God always let the devil no u know who he is when he come to u through people u see the devil is a spirit he need a. Human body to live in don 't let him fool u rebuke the devil from u in the name and blood of Jesus and he got to go

I began to memorize James over twenty years ago with a men 's study group but was interrupted because of my need to assist my father who died of lung cancer. I can still quote a portion of chapter one.I am now 67. Praise God for the power of His wonderful word. I love the book of James.

This chapter tells all men to change bridle their tongue and whole body! Believing and having fear like to tremble is just being the devil yourself...the devils also believe and tremble. Workout man!

James 3 vers 3-10, this is my first sermon. Jesus gave me this one Saturday nite. I was called to preach God 's word in 2013. I have been through all types of schoolings with other Pastors. I will be glad when I give my first sermon. Praise God our Lord Savior Jesus Christ. Amen!!!

James says it so well, I hardly know what to add. I have learned this scripture as I have seen myself embellishing, which is lying. And I understand Paul 's struggles against the first. The older I get and the more I read the bible, the greater my understanding. Many lives have been lost over lies. Blessed be the name of the Lord God of Heaven.

Its a great word from God. How we must tame the tonque. If we are to do that then we can be called true Christians. Verse 18:and that which come from God is peaceful. What kind of wisdom come from our minds? Are they gracious to bring righteousness and peace? If not then its from the flesh. God help us all,especially ME

I think it is a good chapter. Okay James verse excellent verse by the grace of god. Okay Amen. God Can Do Anything.Okay.

The words pierce deep into the core of the heart, and thus, exposes to us the magnitude of responsibility shouldered on anyone who preaches the Word of God, as such, greater responsibility demands greater accountability. This is why we should always seek the Grace of God 's protection in order to continue living a life of purity ... May the Lord Almighty continue to bless and keep us safe in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior Amen .

In 3 18,this means that there can 't be peace somewhere unless the fruit of righteousness is sown there and this is only possible through people who want peace to reign in the world

Man offend not in word is a perfect man means when u are a child of God u are careful what comes out of your mouth If u know God u would not go around offending people some people don 't care what they say if it comes to their minds they will speak it u must remember the tongue is deadly it can speak nasty, bitter things so when u pray and think before u speak God will tell u what to speak God can see what we cannot at all time.remember sometime the devil speaks though people.he can only live in a body where there is NO God or holy Ghost because the devil is a Spirit going to and forth in the airway to see who body he can live in make sure he is not living in your body choose Jesus Christ he died so u could have life.That Real true love

MY goodness! Father i am guilty! i confess that i have had both cursing and blessing coming out of my mouth and bitter, envy and strife. Please forgive me! I choose to change and i ask that you help me in Jesus Name. Thank you father.

l believe every word that James Chapte 3 says, the power of death is in the tongue .So be very careful of how you speak, and the things you say.

As ministers of GOD 's WORD we have the resposibility to live the gospel. Not just by the words we preach, but by the ACTION behind the words. It is just as detrimental to preach the inerrant WORD of God and live a life that is contrary to its teachings. This brings to my remembrance, of what the WORD OF GOD says, about us giving account of EVERY idle WORD we speak, will be accounted for in the day of JUDGMENT.

WOW, the power of James 3 17 such a comforting and life changing verse. I am new here and all the comments are so beautiful and so teaching of his word. Thank you all ,I am learning so much, so much.

I love it.

I love it.

You can not walk with God and walk in anger or decit. Attitude and fortitude shall keep you on the right path. The love of God will guide and protect you.

Can you please clarify James 3 2 . Especially " Man offend not in word , Same is a Perfect man ". Does it mean that we should keep up our word promise to others.

excellent instructions

The bits in horses mouth cause pressure to sensitive mouth of the horse The pressure cause the horse to obey and can direct guide the body even to turn around if that s what the rider wants the horse to do However man does not have a small bit in his mouth controlled by God or anyone else but God created man a speaking spirit with his own will to make his choices in speech speaking with the tongue The words can speak life and or death to situations from the same small tongue and can come from the same all speaking spirits Summary The small bit s in the horses mouth is are directed by the rider and controls the horses bodily action while the small tongue in the mouth of man is directed by his own will and is sometimes uncontrollable The horses bit is a controller while the small tongue of man is uncontrollable

James 3 1 urages the teachers preachers of the word to be serious with what they are talking about seen that they are feeding the right food to the church of God see Acts 20 28 Church was purchased with His own blood God We must serve with trembling heart

3:11,CAN PURE AND BITTER WATER FLOW FROM THE SAME FOUNTAIN? NO,LET THE WORDS FROM OUR MOUTHS GIVE LIFE TO PEOPLE,WE SHOULD EFFECTUATE CHANGE WITH GODLY CONVERSATION.

This verse is so true. There is no one who has been able to have perfect control of his or her tongue. We all say things that we later regret or say without even thinking. This is another sad consequence of the sin tht we inherited from our ancestors Adam and Eve.

5Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

The tongue can no man tame. This is why God choose tongues as evidence of receiving the Holy Ghost in Acts. To prove that ONLY God can tame the tongue.

I am surprised that so few ministers ever speak about the evilness of envy, emulation and rivalry in churches. It is one of the worst sins yet the least talked about. It pervades in christian circles, hence the need to address. It is very destructive and insidious.

There is so much truth in those words. More damage is done by thoughtless speech that can never be altered. How easy to fall into gossip or use a disparaging remark that causes pain to others. Would it not be better to try to find something good to say to really try to love one another. To really try to tame the tongue.

I like how versus 18 tops off this chapter with a cherry: "And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace".

Where are mind is set on; determines, what he will allow us to go through, or what he will bless us with; to help us be like him, and react like him in every situation we face in are lives.

It's like God is saying to us " If you want me, than you will study the lamp that i have given to your feet, and then on your own power, try to follow it, without giving up". "And then will I pour on you, my Spirit, and be ONE with you.

It's like, in are prayer's we ask God to drive for us, in are metiphoric prayers to God, but as James 2:26 says; are faith without works is dead.

James 3:Teaches the virtue or attitude a good Christian should possess in words and in actions i.e.must be rich in words that edifies/pleasing and actions that matches his/her words by avoiding strife,envy,negative or offensive conversation,etc.

The book of James 3 explicitly illustrates with comparison, humans (Christians) and fountain of water. We shouldn't produce evil and good, but good only because good is God as God is good. Bless you.
