My word tells you not to judge other, and that the same standard you use to judge others will be used for you. Does this make you think that if you ignore the sins of others that I will ignore yours? You know that you are not supposed to heap condemnation on others, but there is a place in between these positions that I want you to take. You can be an agent of mercy, discerning my redemptive purpose in those who need my assistance and seeking me for how you may assist in implementing it. Neither condemnation nor indifference is helpful but you can act for real improvement. Is this a standard of judgment that you would be willing to be “judged” by yourself? It will put you in a position to have my redemptive purposes advanced in your own life.
