Matthew 7:1
Matthew 7:1
Judge not, that ye be not judged.
The reminder to refrain from judgment is a call to humility and self-reflection. This inspiration teaches us that by choosing not to judge, we allow room for forgiveness, understanding, and grace in our relationships. It challenges us to look inward, focusing on our own growth rather than the shortcomings of others. This approach fosters a spirit of empathy, encouraging us to support rather than criticize, and to offer encouragement instead of judgment. By choosing understanding over judgment, we contribute to a culture of acceptance and kindness. Let us be mindful of this call to humility, recognizing that our judgments often reflect our own insecurities. May we live with compassion, choosing to build others up rather than tear them down, and creating a community where love and acceptance thrive.
Luke 6:41
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Romans 14:10
Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment.
Romans 14:12
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Romans 14:13
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block in their way.
