In James Chapters 3 and 4, John Mathews teaches the power

and danger of the tongue. He illustrates how a small organ can

have a significant impact, likening it to a rudder steering a ship.

The chapters call for self-examination, urging believers to replace

jealousy and selfish ambition with humility and wisdom from

above. James calls out worldly desires as the source of conflicts

and challenges believers to draw near to God, cleanse their lives

and submit to his will, promising that humility before the Lord leads

to exaltation.
