“Likewise, look at the ships: though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the impulse of the helmsman determines. Even so the tongue is a little member, and it can boast of great things. See how much wood or how great a forest…

“I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High” Psalm 82:6 Once, the children of Israel demanded of God a king to rule over them. According to the scriptures, God was dissatisfied with their request (1 Samuel 8:5-9), because in reality, He was their King. His plan was…
