Duties of the Tongue

James 1:26 – If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain. The tongue is a very important member. It is the part of our body that stands between the heart and mind and the outside world. It is how…
