Sermon Prep | James 3:1–12

Jame speaks with a laser sharp focus concerning the importance and responsibility of the office of teacher. While he explicitly discourages eagerness to teach, the application of this text to the body of Christ at large (and not just the teacher) is apparent.

Whether we display discipline and control over our tongues or we speak freely with disregard to others, our words have power.

Responsibility Brings Reproach v.1

Shortcomings Are A Part of Human Nature v.2

Small Items Have Big Impacts v.3-5

The Influence of Evil Is Present Within Us vv.6-8

The Tongue Produces Simultaneous Scenarios vv.9-10

The things that are coming out of our mouths are

altering our paths forward/acclimating us to what’s behind

bridging us to our future/binding us to our present condition

changing our current revelation/cementing our current situation

influencing prosperity/embracing poorness and poverty

opening us to the things of the spirit/operating in the flesh
