I tell you not to judge by appearances. What is the easiest judgment to make? Are you quick to judge those who are overweight to be lacking in character? The results are obvious and you can discern this from a distance, even before they speak a word.
Yet there are character issues that are far more serious that have no visible manifestation. If you are willing to withhold judgment on more serious issues that are not obvious, then shouldn’t you also withhold judgment on something that is less serious? This can be briefly summarized in the commandment that you judge not at all. For you are called to minister life rather than judgment just as I did.
