In the next few weeks I am to teach a Bible Study on the Mote & the Beam.

I need some idea's on how to teach it and also what does the word Beam really meaning in this verse?
Isaiah 43:2    
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee: and through the rivers, when thou walkest through the shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shall not be burned: neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

Mote = speck of dust
Beam = a beam, like a big stick

Which puts it all in perspective when applied to the scripture in question.  How can someone with a stick in his eye say "Here, let me help you get the speck of dust out of your eye"? 

Or to put it another way, how can a guy who is having an affair with another man's wife say, "I can tell you how to handle it when you're tempted to smoke"?
"Do you sing at church?"
"Yes I sing at church, I sing at home, at work, in the car, at the supermarket, at Wal-Mart..."
