BOOK OF JAMES

James - Chapter 3

James 3:1 says, “My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.” The tongue, that which you speak, if you are void of Father’s Truths can mislead if you are Biblically illiterate and teaching carnally instead of spiritually. Be sure your teachers, those you are listening to, are led by Father God. Judgment begins at the pulpit [I Peter 4:17] when the so called teachers answer for their sins as well as the sins of all their false teachings that cause others to be misled. A master scholar of christianity are as the very elect who are familiar with Father’s Word, therefore judge the tree [Matthew 7:15 - 23] by its fruit since there will not be many who teach truth, however there will be many who teach lies, doctrines and traditions of men.

James 3:2 says, “For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same [is] a perfect man, [and] able also to bridle the whole body.” Bridle the tongue means you teach only truth, which is Father’s Word, giving our LORD the glory since all truth comes from Father God. The very elect are vessels, servants to our Father and no tribute goes to them for that which Father has blessed with since all knowledge comes from our LORD who receives all recognition, all respect and glory for His merciful kindness.

James 3:3 says, “Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.” A person who just talks all the time speaking nothingness or carnal things rather than teaching spiritual truth because they never bother to study Father’s Word Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse wherein they can share that truth, have not accepted that bit in their mouth which brings about love, discipline and obedience in Father’s Word. When you are as the very elect of Father God you speak only that which is proven within His Word and no one can change the path of your love, obedience and discipline from the course of Christ Jesus who is our Living Word.

James 3:4 says, “Behold also the ships, which though [they be] so great, and [are] driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.” A small helm can turn a huge ship; however you cannot do that with the rambling nothingness coming out of the mouth of the Biblically illiterate. False teachings cause congregations to stumble within their spiritual self.

James 3:5 says, “Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!” Out of a small mouth with a little tongue is just like a small match that causes a forest fire. That small Biblically illiterate tongue speaking false teachings grows like wildfire among those calling themselves christians who never bother to study the Word of Father God wherein you can judge the tree by its fruit and know a lie when you hear one.

James 3:6 says, “And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.” Gossip and false teachings are not a little matter since it can cause you to bow down and worship the first/false christ [satan] when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind. That deception will cause you to be under that cup of wrath, which is discipline with chastisement from our Lord Jesus Christ when He returns as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” Study to show yourself approved through prayer; seeking the increase of knowledge only Father God can give.

James 3:7 says, “For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:” Mankind can tame all kinds of animals since Father has given us dominion over the animal kingdom, however most cannot tame their own ignorant tongue. They can find no discipline within what comes out of their mouths, such as teaching the truth of Father’s Word because of a lack of love, discipline and obedience, their allegiance to their own fame and wealth.

James 3:8 says, “But the tongue can no man tame; [it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.” It is full of poison which are the doctrines and traditions of men that teach people of the rapture and lead them spiritually speaking, right into the bed of satan when he is cast to this earth, if you teach your truth rather than Father’s truth.

James 3:9 says, “Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.” You do not get sweet and sour water out of the same well and you should not be rendering or receiving sweet and sour words out of the same mouth. Father’s Word is faithful and true and never changes. Fill your mind with Father’s truths and teach what our LORD has written through His servants and Christ Jesus, our Master Teacher. Father God is Creator of Heaven and earth, and “For the earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof [I Corinthians 10:26].” Everything belongs to Father God. Therefore, there is only one way each of us can bless our LORD who has possession of all things and that is by studying His Word and seeking understanding of these truths, which brings our Father pleasure.

James 3:10 says, “Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.” When you are a teacher of Father’s Word be careful of what comes out of your mouth when teaching as well as during your daily living. Let your light so shine in your christian walk so that which is good far exceeds that which is bad. No one is perfect which includes the very elect; however Father expects much from His election since He has given them much.

James 3:11 says, “Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet [water] and bitter?” No it does not; since the water will be the same just as Father’s Word is the same, not up for personal interpretation, one meaning only; yesterday, today and tomorrow.

James 3:12 says, “Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so [can] no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.” Judge the teacher by what comes forth from their mouth. Be slow to answer, quick to listen and when you are versed in Father’s Truths, you will be able to discern that which is true from that which is a lie, that which is true from that which is fiction. If it sounds like babble and causes you to be confused since it makes no sense, that thorn [pulpit guru] is spewing sour grapes and Father’s Truths are sweet to your spirit because they are from our True Vine who is Christ Jesus.

James 3:13 says, “Who [is] a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.” Wisdom is and comes from the Word of Father God. A true teacher has humility and a clear understanding of truth and they will never take recognition for what comes from their mouth, always giving Father the glory, blessing our LORD for granting that increase of knowledge and understanding of His precious truths.

James 3:14 says, “But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.” Father’s Word is the truth and when you twist, misinterpret and teach according to the traditions and doctrines of men, you are saying in your ignorance that Father gave mankind a Word that is babble and confusion and that is a lie and certainly displeases Father who despises false teachings.

James 3:15 says, “This wisdom descendeth not from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish.” The teachings according to the doctrines and traditions of men are not from Father God since it brings nothing but trouble into your congregations and this why there are always problems within the churches. Father is not the author of confusion, satan is. Teach spiritually {respectfully} and not carnally [by imagination]. There is one Word and one Truth and teaching these truths brings about blessings.

James 3:16 says, “For where envying and strife [is], there [is] confusion and every evil work.” There is no peace when truth is not taught, only disorder and chaos. Peace of mind comes from accepting Christ Jesus, loving our Father God and living according to the Word of Almighty God since your journey is not for the flesh, rather for your spiritual self to spend all of eternity with our LORD in Heaven. Get out of the confusion of the flesh which shall perish at the sounding of the Seventh Trump when Christ Jesus returns as “King of kings and Lord of lords”, and be ready to receive your spiritual body with an immortal soul.

James 3:17 says, “But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.” When your spirit communes with Father’s Spirit through Christ Jesus studying, receiving understanding and being a part of the plan of Almighty God there is peace within your spirit that no one can take away from you. Understanding the mysteries of why we were born into this Second or Flesh Earth Age, what shall happen as it comes to its end and our gathering back to Christ Jesus for the Millennial Kingdom teaching should bring you joy. Knowing and understanding these things keeps you under the will of Father as you long to be with Him forever within His Heavenly Estate. So get rid of the traditions and doctrines of men and listen to the teachings of Christ Jesus who is our Living Word and rejoice with your peaceful spirit as you commune with Father God.

James 3:18 says, “And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.” When teachers sow peace it will bring peace to your congregations. In many churches this does not happen as your so-called teachers stand before you wanting to be loved and adored, patted on the back for the nothingness that spills from their mouth, strutting with their playing church and encouraging hallelujah corners. Father’s Word is not complicated if you want to receive it with understanding because it is Father’s desire for all to come to have that knowledge of His Word. Stop being a part of playing church and find peace with our LORD God Almighty through Christ Jesus by the blessing of the Holy Spirit and feel the calm of a peaceful spirit.
