Present the Gospel
Jesus said,
“Judge not, that you be not Judged.
For with the judgement you pronounce you will be judged with the measure you use it will be measured to you.” Matthew 7:1,2.
Jesus makes things clear here. We are not to judge others especially when it comes to where a person will spend eternity.
I firmly believe that Jesus said this because we do not know why a person is the way they are. Only God knows why a person is the way they are.
Also if we are heaping judgement on someone we will turn them away. And, they will judge us.
It is not our job as Christians, as believers in Christ Jesus to judge anyone. Jesus in giving the great commission said,
"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20.
We cannot fill this commission if we are judging people.
We must never judge another person unless it is for our personal safety or the safety of others.
We must however present the Gospel of Christ in as pure a form as we know how to those around us. For that is the only way we will win souls for Christ.
Please think about it.
