Servants » Servants not being able to serve two masters
Do not get into close and incongruous relations with unbelievers. What partnership can uprightness have with iniquity, or what can light have to do with darkness? How can Christ agree with Belial? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? What bargain can a temple of God make with idols? For we are a temple of the living God, just as God said, "I will live in them and move among them, And I will be their God and they will be my people."
No slave can belong to two masters, for he will either hate one and love the other, or stand by one and make light of the other. You cannot serve God and money.

Speech/communication » The tongue
For we all make many mistakes. Anyone who never makes a mistake in what he says has a character that is fully developed and is able to control his whole body as well. If we put bridles into horses' mouths to make them obey us, we can guide their whole bodies. Even ships, great as they are, and driven by strong winds, are steered with a very small rudder wherever the pilot pleases. read more.
So the tongue is a little organ and yet very boastful. What a great forest a spark will set on fire! And the tongue is a fire, a world of wrong the tongue proves in our bodies, soiling the whole body and setting fire to the whole round of nature, and set on fire itself by hell. For every kind of animal and bird, reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by man, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is an irreconcilable evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless the Lord our Father, and with it we curse men made in God's likeness. Blessing and cursing issue from the same mouth! This is not right, my brothers. Does a spring pour forth fresh and brackish water from the same crevice? Can a fig tree produce olives, my brothers, or a grape vine figs? A salt spring cannot give fresh water.
