Judge not lest ye be judged. At least here’s what we’re told in Matt 7:1 "Judge not, that you be not judged. So, should Christians judge or not? Should we judge or should we not? If we see someone committing a sin, shouldn’t we make it a point to let that person know they are sinning?
Well, let’s read verse 2 - Matt 7:2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. Haven’t we all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God? If so, then are these verses telling us not to judge.
Let’s read one more verse. Drop down to verse 3 and read some more in Matthew 7. Matt 7:3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Isn’t this telling us to judge ourselves and not others?
Here’s something else Jesus said. How does this verse fit in - John 7:24 Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."
In one verse we are told not to judge and in another we are told to judge. Which is it? Do we judge or do we not judge?
How do we tie these verse together in order to rightly divide the word of truth?
What if we add these verses - John 8:10-11 10…"Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?" 11 She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."
Is it possible that proper judgement is associated with condemnation?
Listen to this audio message or watch the video as Dr. Thiel shines the light of God’s truth from the pages of the Bible on the relationship between Righteous Judgement and Condemnation.
