Taming the Tongue
1
Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.
2
We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
3
When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal.
4
Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go.
