It will be measured to you
Jesus said,
Those claiming to be Christians it seems judges anyone they disagree with. Tony Campolo the American evangelist stated,
“We ought to get out of the judging business. We should leave it up to God to determine who belongs in one arena or another when it comes to eternity. What we are obligated to do is to tell people about Jesus, and that's what I do.” Tony Campolo.
You will never win a soul for Christ if you insist on judging them. It will simply turn them away.
Jesus said,
The apostle Paul states,
We should not be judging anyone who does not espouse to be a follower of Christ Jesus. That is God’s job. For only God knows what is truly in a persons heart.
Please think about it.
Jesus said,
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
For in the same way you judge others,
you will be judged,
and with the measure you use,
it will be measured to you.”
Matthew 7:1,2.
To my mind this portion of scripture is all to often not listened to by those who claim to be Christians. You only have to look in the media or talk to many who attend church regularly to realize this is true.Those claiming to be Christians it seems judges anyone they disagree with. Tony Campolo the American evangelist stated,
“We ought to get out of the judging business. We should leave it up to God to determine who belongs in one arena or another when it comes to eternity. What we are obligated to do is to tell people about Jesus, and that's what I do.” Tony Campolo.
You will never win a soul for Christ if you insist on judging them. It will simply turn them away.
Jesus said,
“So in everything, do to others
what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets”
Matthew 7:12.
If you claim to be a follower of Christ Jesus, think about it. If someone was judging you for what you believe. Telling you, you were wrong and going to Hell how would you react.The apostle Paul states,
“What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church?
Are you not to judge those inside?
God will judge those outside.
“Expel the wicked man from among you.”
1 Corinthians 5:12,13.
The bottom line is this. As Christians. As believers in Christ Jesus we should keep our own house in order. We should expel the wicked from among us. Those who are not teaching the gospel of Christ in spirit and in truth. We should expel those who are using God’s word for their own evil desires.We should not be judging anyone who does not espouse to be a follower of Christ Jesus. That is God’s job. For only God knows what is truly in a persons heart.
Please think about it.
