Free Speech??? 1st Bible teaching

A short teaching on the tongue. Here are the verses quoted from the New King James version of the bible:

Proverbs 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.

Matthew 12:35-37
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart[a] brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. 36 But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

James 3:1-5
My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. 2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. 3 Indeed,[a] we put bits in horses mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. 4 Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. 5 Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things.
See how great a forest a little fire kindles!

Hey James!

This video was better than most of the preaching I've heard in church recently.
