Can you imagine if we all just focused on ourselves?? If people didn't have to be concerned with people judging them and could worry about the only One who will actually place any judgement on us? 2 Corinthians 5:10 says "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil." My prayer is that people, especially believers, can stop being so judgmental. Starting with ME. Check out these other Scriptures about judging others.... "Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God?" ~Romans 2:1-3 "Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?" ~James 4:11-12 "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear."~ Ephesians 4:29 "You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye." ~Matthew 7:5 "There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?" ~James 4:12 |
