Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged

Judge not, lest ye be judged Matthew 7:1.

is a famous biblical phrase where Jesus warns against hypocritical, harsh, or condemning judgments.

Instead of a total ban on all discernment, it calls for humility;

challenging people to address their own deep flaws before criticizing others.

  • Watch the Hypocrisy:
  • The verses immediately following the famous line (Matthew 7:3-5) use the metaphor of a speck in someone else’s eye versus a “plank” in your own. It’s a warning against being hyper-critical of others while ignoring massive faults in yourself.
  • The “Measure You Use”:
  • Biblical scholars note that Jesus is warning that the standards you apply to others will ultimately be the same standards applied to you by God.
  • Righteous Judgment:
  • The Bible doesn’t command us to abandon all discernment. Companion verses (like John 7:24) advise to “Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment,” encouraging evaluation of actions for the sake of correction and accountability, rather than condemning the person’s character. So you better be certain! There is a wise old saying, “Do not let the door kick you on your way out!

– Scriptural Thinking gets the credit for this one …

Judge Not, That Ye Be Not Judged, a reminder to walk in mercy, grace, and love.

Let the message of forgiveness and humility inspire you today.

Love One Another As I Have Loved You

Love One Another As I Have Loved You …

The Bible emphasizes the command to “love one another,” particularly in John 13:34-35, where Jesus instructs His disciples to love each other as He has loved them.

Key Verses:

  • John 13:34-35: “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” 
  • This verse highlights the importance of love as a defining characteristic of Jesus’ followers.
  • 1 John 4:21: “And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.” This verse reinforces the idea that love for others is a reflection of our love for God.
  • Romans 13:10: “Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.”
  • This passage emphasizes that love is central to fulfilling God’s commandments.

Significance of Loving One Another

  • Foundation of Christian Faith: Love is not just a feeling but a command that is foundational to the Christian faith. It is a conscious decision to act kindly, forgive, and show compassion to others.
  • Reflection of God’s Love: The love we show to others is a reflection of God’s love for us. As stated in 1 John 4:19, “We love because he first loved us.” 
  • Unity and Community: Loving one another fosters unity and harmony within the Christian community, allowing believers to support and uplift each other in their faith journeys.

Practical Application

  • Acting in Love: The command to love one another calls for action. It encourages believers to demonstrate love through their deeds, not just words. This includes acts of kindness, support, and understanding in everyday interactions.
  • Creating a Ripple Effect: By prioritizing love, Christians can create a positive impact in their communities, promoting joy and harmony in a world that often lacks compassion.
  • In summary,

The biblical command to “love one another” is a central theme in Christianity, urging believers to embody love in their relationships and interactions, reflecting the love of Christ in their lives.

The demon is alive in those who will not!

MFJ is spot on this one!
