Judge not lest ye be judged!

For the most part, the world doesn’t get this concept. But we can each do our part.

Loving my neighbor as myself includes being non judgemental, which means not condemning others.

There is a form or facet of judging others, which is exercising wisdom, discernment and discretion. If you know of someone’s reputation and character as they have displayed, it’s actually acceptable to not want to associate with them.

Condemning others is to place  final judgement upon them, based on their words and actions. Jesus said he did not come to condemn anyone, but that they might be saved through Him.

The other side of the coin, so to speak, in judging others is “lest ye be judged.” In the same measure I use in judging others, it will be measured back to me.

Romans 2:1 NLT
[1] You may think you can condemn such people, but you are just as bad, and you have no excuse! When you say they are wicked and should be punished, you are condemning yourself, for you who judge others do these very same things.

Romans 8:1, 38-39 NLT
[1] So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus….
[38] And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. [39] No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
