Are you doing this?

Are you doing this

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.

How will you be judged? 

If you’ve ever looked at someone and judged them rightly or wrongly God will according to Jesus here in Matthew 7:1,2, will judge you.

Sadly many people who claim to be Christians do judge people. They judge people who are homeless, people of other faiths, and people with a different lifestyle to their own, to name a few. And it’s not limited to those who sit in the pews. I’ve heard pastors and evangelist judge others also.

Tony Campolo the American evangelist said,

"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.

Jesus 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.

This is the job of all who believe in Christ Jesus. We have no right to judge anyone. We do however have a duty to God to tell the world about Jesus Christ.

Are you doing this?

Please think about it.
