JUDGING
Romans 2:1
Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.
Personal Challenge
I have heard it proclaimed by some well-meaning Christians that Christians have been given the authority to judge others for their non-Christian behaviors. This belief can not be found in the Scriptures. Jesus taught us to judge not that we be not judged. Here, Paul challenges us that if we judge others that we are condemning ourselves by that judgment. Christ left us with two basic commandments to live our lives by. We are to love our God and to love our neighbor. If we go through our life living by these two premises, we will not find room to be judgmental. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
