“Judge not…” But what did Jesus really mean? 🤔
This Sunday, we explored Matthew 7:1–5 and the difference between wise discernment and a judgmental spirit.
IMPORTANT NOTE❗
Jesus isn’t telling us to ignore sin or abandon discernment! He’s reminding us to examine our own hearts before pointing out the faults of others.
Why? Because it’s easy to hold a magnifying glass to someone else’s sin while overlooking our own. 🔥
So before we go on pointing our fingers at others, we need to FIRST stop and look in the mirror! Because as we allow God to deal with our own sin and struggles first, THEN we are better equipped to help our brothers and sisters in Christ with humility, love, and the right spirit.
We are to judge.
But not be judgmental.
So today, let’s be people who:
🙏 Walk in humility.
❤️ Speak the truth in love.
✝️ Extend the grace we’ve received.
