07: Taming the Tongue – Hit the Mark

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 13, 2014 by Curtis HallNovember 14, 2014avatar

Today, as I write this week’s thoughts on Taming the Tongue, an assorted group of scientist have successfully landed a spacecraft on a comet.

Thursday: Blessing and Cursing

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 12, 2014 by Sabbath School LessonNovember 15, 2014avatar

Read James 3:9-12. What truth does James illustrate using the fountain, the fig tree, and the grapevine? The idea of both blessing and cursing coming out of the mouth of a Christian is disturbing, to say the least. What about watching profanity-laced television programs or movies during the week and attending church on Sabbath to … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: Damage Control

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 11, 2014 by Sabbath School LessonNovember 13, 2014avatar

We’ve all experienced it. Something we said gets magnified, perhaps even exaggerated, to the point that we don’t even recognize it anymore. As James says, See how great a forest a little fire kindles (James 3:5, NKJV). Read prayerfully and carefully James 3:6. What is he saying about the power of our tongue, of our … Continue reading –>

Why Didn’t He Say Anything?

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 11, 2014 by William EarnhardtJanuary 27, 2017avatar

Several years ago one of my superiors made a false accusation against me at church. I asked a couple of friends how I should refute what was said. One friend answered wisely, “Don’t defend yourself against the accusation. Doing so will only give the accusation merit.” My friend was right. Sadly, the leader who made … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: “Little” Things Are the Big Things

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 10, 2014 by Sabbath School LessonNovember 28, 2014avatar

Read James 3:3-5. What do the two illustrations have in common, and how do they relate to the tongue? Both the bit in a horse’s mouth and the rudder of a ship are very small compared to what they control. Yet, with a slight movement of the hand, the horse’s or the ship’s direction can … Continue reading –>

Monday: Word Power

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 9, 2014 by Sabbath School LessonNovember 15, 2014avatar

For we all stumble in many ways (James 3:2, ESV). What a refreshing admission, especially considering James’s emphasis on behavior! Still, our acknowledgment of the real need not dim our belief in God’s ideal for us as His representatives on earth. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, … Continue reading –>

Agreement Reached

Read James 3:1. What important point is he making here about accountability? Teachers in the church and in Christian schools have an especially heavy responsibility because they shape minds and hearts in ways that will last for years. This effect includes the rippling impact they will have on many others beyond their immediate sphere of … Continue reading –>
