       James points us to a consistent level in our speech. Since we know that our speech comes from the thoughts we have been thinking, as Jesus told his disciples, then we know that the thoughts we contemplate on in our minds matter greatly. But the point here is consistency. This is what I’ve been saying all along. This is why I have been saying we need to reach the higher states of consciousness. James said God doesn’t want us speaking good and bad, positive and negative, helpful and hurtful, at the same time, alongside each other. No, James tells us God wants us to be consistently positive in our speech, which means we need to be consistently positive in our thinking. And in order for this to happen, a transformation in our lives has to occur. For many, it simply hasn’t happened yet. No matter how good you think you are in living out your Christian life, in how closely you follow the Bible and what it says, the reality is if that’s really true then that is going to be demonstrated in mostly positive speech.
