 James warns his fellow believers that they should not be so eager to 
become teachers because of the responsibility involved. Because a 
teacher constantly uses words, there's a particular danger in this area 
for him/her. Those who teach will be judged more strictly since their 
words are used to instruct, influence, and guide others. We know how 
much damage false teachers can cause with their mouths. They misguide 
hearers and lead them astray.

 We all stumble in many things but think about all the troubles our 
tongue gets us into. Obvious fact: no one is perfect. Can anyone truly 
say that they successfully control their tongue all the time (never at 
fault in what they say)? I think not :).
- The analogies indicate that we must not underestimate the power of our tongue.
