Judge yourself

1 Corinthians 4:5
Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.

It is tempting to judge a fellow christian, evaluating whether or not he or she is a good follower of Christ. But only GOD knows a person's heart, and He is the only one with right to judge. Paul's warning to the Corinthians should also warn us. We are to help those are sinning(5:12,13), but we must not judge who is a better servant for Christ. When you judge someone, you automatically consider yourself better, and this is pride.

Now we can never say we never judged someone, if you say you never have then add liar to your list also. But GOD forgives, and we to need to take heed of what Paul was stating in the above verse. Don't/ Try not to judge others but for real we should not judge fellow Christians - we are all sinners saved by grace.

.
Not saying I sit there judge everyone and actually I don't judge people, but I am not going to sit here and say I NEVER have. I try to live for the LORD daily but I do fall. And I been judged, I think we all have one time or another.

In His Name
GOD bless you and yours....
