    The Tamed Tongue Scripture: James 3:1–12, especially verses 8–10 No man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and ...read more
