I Love what Todd said at 8:05. "Silence In The Mist Of Sin Is A Sin." I know Satan wants us to cover our Sins, Because I know Christ wants us to Confess our Sins. Why? "If We Confess Our Sins To God, He Will Keep His Promise And Do What Is Right: He Will Forgive Us Our Sins And Purify Us From All Our Wrongdoing." (John 1:9). Amen.
Scripture tells you to correct your Christian siblings and to not have fellowship with those who knowingly continue in sin. It does NOT tell Christians to badger and condemn and punish anyone whom they consider to be sinful. The English word "judge" is used in different ways in the New Testament. Don't confuse 'condemnation' with 'discernment.'
Thank you James exactly!!!! This salesman Tod has evil spirits that help him sound Luke he know and follows the bible but he is used by those demons to harass and CONDEMN others. He keep saying, "You are an adult" to belittle those who disagree with him. I have discernment and these folks tell big lies and talk you to death or harass until you submit. This us no more than mind controlling people deominic...demonic is ALWAYS bad fruit. No demon ever pushed me in the right direction. The Holy Spirit still has my back...The people will head rape you if you keep listening to their false doctrine and hypocrisy. I gotta add these folk are NOT gentle. They are passive aggressive. People need to discern the difference. I would like to see these false teachers get rebuked sued hospitalized or anything else that Jesus wants to correct them with. These people are very Dangerous sales people.
+Savannah McKenzie Your response is so hypocritical. You states above "demons to harass& CONDEMN others" is what you viewed through the video. He clearly states how it should be done & with what intentions. Your evil desire for them -" false teachers get rebuked sued hospitalized" Is very far from CHRIST LIKE nor HOLY SPIRIT LED..God bless you!
Audi Fan How about you break all those false accusations into an intelligent debate and don't insult blood Jesus with your sarcastic "God bless!!" I go to mature ministries to learn. You kids are wasting my time. Yes Lord Jehovah punishes people with consequences such as demons hospitalization Ect...His judgments are righteous. You do not have the discernment to know the different and are quite honest a turd for a brain. I do pray you. God bless and don't ever get in my face or I will rebuke you!!!
I pray that you submit to almighty God! You are confused with your understanding. I hope you find a place that can truly help you with understanding the word of God.
Over the past 10 years me and my wife have noticed a consistent rise of people using the "don't judge others" tactic, and most often doing this with frivolous attempts to thwart anyone's Christian principles because they don't line up with their ungodly views, beliefs, etc. We often provide the verses that clarify the passage from the Bible concerning judging, and also ask them if the Bible does not allow us to discern right from wrong based on God's word and then teach these things to others, then every pastor would be in violation of judging others. However this most often ends up getting responded with them starting a new point and/or with very foul language. Another problem that is very common anymore is those who are calling Christians out on having judged others but based on their own definition, they are now judging and would be just as wrong as us. ....so unless the Holy Spirit is directly touching you for you to continue trying to reach through to them, you can only respectfully walk away from what is turned into an argument, and then pray for them as well as asking God to open our own hearts and minds in how to talk to unbelievers that they will have an ear to hear the awesome truth of God's word
When you judge too, you invite judgement upon yourself. We all judge through our own biases to some extent, but the Father will judge us through pure objectivity. The Pharisees judged Jesus based on their own self interests but behind a facade of god ordained authority. However, the Father will judge their false judgements against his son from a place of pure truth.
Speak for yourself playaaaa. First take the plank out of your own eye then you will be able to see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. 19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; 20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. 20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 21 I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.
Juan Olivier There is a larger cult of judging harshly of those outside the church, and a number of people on youtube saying other Christians aren’t Christians and going to hell.
@@Theboywhoatelasagna of course there is, why wouldn't they say that lol, but then again, those 'other' christians are saying exactly the same thing about them too, so maybe in reality all of them are going to hell because all they do is judge and bully others lol sad state of life where you 'need' a book to tell you that you should be respectful of others.
Matthew 7:1 & Luke 6:37 refers to PASSING Judgment -- an action, a verb, getting even, vengeance, doing something to somebody. Anyone who tells you it is wrong to make judgments about other people is the greatest hypocrite you will ever meet !!
thank you for putting this video out for christian. In these last days those who claim to be christians and dwelling sexual pervasion (homosexuality, lesbianism, adultery,fornication) use matthew 7vs1 as a tool to shut down rebuke. unfortunately many of us christians dont read the Bible thats why these people are able to take the scripture out of context further they ignore other scriptures in the Bible which allow christian to judge righteously and with love. Let the True worshipers of Yeshua arise and stand firm, be bold and rebuke those who claim to be christians but they want to hold on to SIN Shalom
Yes! Recommended teaching! One of the most misused verses in the Bible is, "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (Matthew 7: 1). In verses 2-5 of this same chapter it is evident that verse 1 refers specifically to hypocritical judgment. A brother who has a beam in his own eye should not be judging the brother who may have a mote in his eye. The lesson is very clear, you cannot and must not judge another for his sin if you are guilty of the SAME SIN. An obvious example of this is the fallen pastor Ted Haggard who preached continually against homosexuality while at the same time he was a practising homosexual. The verse does NOT mean that you must never judge ANYONE. Jesus said to the religious Pharisees, "O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh" (Matthew 12:34). To many evangelicals and some fundamentalists, this would be unacceptable language today, but it is biblical language and it came from the mouth of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Paul named Peter publicly. Peter was guilty of unscriptural practice. "But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed ... But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?" (Galatians 2:11-14). The whole issue revolved around salvation by the law or by grace. When the integrity and purity of the gospel are at stake, we have no choice: we must expose error and name names. #
Very good word. Because I always said, "God gave me a brain and I can look at a situation and discern, which is a judgment. So what does this mean?" So, thank you very much for this explanation. I also feel judgment can be condemnation. We don't condemn one another, but deal with issues, in love and seek peace, as much as possible with that person. Thanks again for this word. 🕆

What Bible is that in? KJV says Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that you be not judged. I think this scripture supernaturally changed! These pastors should be telling you this. Shalom! Quantum effect a.k.a. the Mandela Effect is black magic. Shalom!😍
I don’t know. My take away is as follows: Don’t judge others, Judge yourself instead. When you’ve cleared out all your sins then you can pass judgement on others (this won’t ever happen, so just don’t judge others). God’s role is the only one who will judge us all. Think of it this way, if we are all sinners, then we need to reflect introspectively. Not to go around finding mistakes in others while we are not free of sin ourselves. If a brother comes to you for your help then okay but be humble and advise him, but “don’t throw pearls to swine” for those others who didn’t ask your opinion. This “judging others” is different from “discerning” what’s right and wrong. The holy spirit guides us to discern but that doesn’t mean that we should openly criticize others. BE HUMBLE Am I wrong? Let me know your opinion, brothers.
Hello 👋 I agree that we need to clear ourselves out of sins yet sometimes, we need our brothers or sisters in faith to make us aware of it first or vice versa. But we should do it privately, gently and out of love. Oftentimes, we wont do it for fear that the other party does not welcome it or they might find fault against us. I would like to suggest checking out this video Judge Not by 119 Ministries th-cam.com/video/AGPUulVecmk/w-d-xo.html&feature=share It clearly explains in light of the other scriptures. Truly, God's Word will not contradict itself. May we know the truth, apply it in our lives and share it. God bless u!
Found my congregation asking this question a lot so I just made a video on it on my channel as well. You guys had a great discussion on it! There is a lot of misunderstanding for sure, context is SO important!
Father God, thank you that we learn to see through your eyes in matters of judging ourselves and others! In accordance with this word and leviticus 19:15, matthew 7:2, john 7:24, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 I bind myself, my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquintances, opponents and the body of Christ to judge rightly and be judged rightly, while I loosen myself of every unequal yoke and common share with those lacking to judge righy and lacking to be judged rightly, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!
My brother you are right for Jesus never compromised love for truth, it's because he loves you is why he tells you the truth. And we being followers of Christ need to judge righteously and not for resentment, jealousy or envy. John 7:24 Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement. We judge that which the Lord is against but we judge not the person, but with charity guide him back to the path of righteousness. As God set judgement upon the children of Israel, but did not cast them away, not only for the covenant he made with their fathers, but it's because he loved them. The great love of our Lord and of his Son Jesus Christ be with you, Amen
What that verse means is if you pass judgement on someone and you have your own issues with sin, the way you judge that individual is the way you will be judged for your sin. For example, if your judgement is harsh, the judgement you receive will be harsh. If your judgement is forgiving, the judgement you receive will be forgiving. Just my interpretation. Not meant to be etched in stone.
I agree context should be used to determine our understanding of any scripture. If we notice the context here, just two verses before Jesus says "judge not", He says "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." So how do we receive "His righteousness"? Isn't it the righteousness which is of God by faith? And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Philippians 3:9 The focus of Matthew 7:1-5 by most has been on sin. The true focus is meant to be on "His righteousness". Jesus is saying we cannot judge ourselves or each other based on sin. If we are His, we have *ALL* been justified through the righteousness of faith! Jesus is distinguishing between trust in Him and trust in religion throughout the whole chapter!
And this is the reason some not all christian ministers go unchecked or not held accountable for there actions The very first word you hear is judge not and they go fo years abusing those verses misinterpreting the chapter
Very well explained thanks.Yes we have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory and but for Gods gift of grace I'm am a wretched man.Satan twists judging he doesn't want me to warn others that they r in error because he wants them to stay in error and be on the broad way!Lets pray that we r all on the truth of his word and not a Pharisees!
What does it mean “Remove the beam for your own eye and then you will see clearly enough to remove the mote in someone else’s eye?" I thought it mean’t that before you judge others, consider all that you have been through in your own life, the ups and downs, the “sins" you have committed etc and then you will see clearly enough not to judge the person who you have very little knowledge about. And then by doing so you will understand the grace and wonderful traits of Jesus Christ. Other related quotes: “Forgive seventy times seven.” “He is with out sin cast the first stone.” Please forgive me if I am not accurate.
Judge not another man based on their works. Judge others with grace, like we want God to judge us. Yet we do have the responsibility of telling others if what they are doing is a sin, wrong, harmful to oneself and or others, taking into account that we ourselves have done many things wrong in this life, so in a brotherish manner encourage others to leave behind sins, repent and find forgiveness, mercy and overflowing love, in the name of Jesus Christ, rather than let them perish in their sins. Thats what I got out of this video. You are welcome to correct me. Lord have mercy on me, a sinner.
God judge us according to our works,not grace,no way you can judge other and call it grace,only christian is under grace,judgement for unbeliever is not grace
JUDGE people with righteous judge,if they are homosexual,JUDGE them,if they are fornicator,JUDGE them,rebuke and did it ALL OPENLY if you want to make people fear
@@ManlyServant the only people Jesus rebuked openly were the Pharisees who went about pointing out the sins of others. He could’ve made a spectacle out of the woman caught right in the act of adultery. The Pharisees did rebuke her openly, and wanted to stone her. Jesus told them that the one without sin could cast the first stone…and none qualified under not having any sin. Then when ALONE (not openly) with the woman, he said “Neither do I condemn thee. Go and sin no more.”
Katriel Jacobs1 second ago First I want to say that the bible does not say that we are not to JUDGE! This is one of the most misinterpreted verses in the Bible. The Messiah is clear in Matthew 7:1-5. If you read Chapter 6 you will see that he is not referring to the whole nation of Israel, but to the JUDGES of Israel who were the PHARISEES AND THE SADDUCEE'S. They were the court Judges and the teachers who would judge you in matters of wrong, and they were teachers of the nation who would guide the people in there life and give them advice on right and wrong. When you read Matthew ch-6 ch-7 as well as chapter 23 you will see one problem. They were Judging the people but they weren't living up to the standards that they set for the people! So The Messiah Yahshua Knowing all there dirt(which the people did not know) Called them out on there lives which were poor examples of the positions they held. So that's that. 1 Corinthians 5:9-13 proves what i am saying, because the Apostle PAUL here clearly tells us to judge each other!!!! he says that we have no right to judge sinners they are doing what there supposes to do SIN! And YAHWEH will judge them! But the people in the assembly we have every right to judge!!!! to keep a clean house! And i don't have to be %100 perfect to judge you, i just have to be genuine and heart felt when i come to you about what i think you need to stop so sin does not run rammped in the assembly. read also 1 Peter 4:17-19. So these men CLEARLY tell us to judge!!!! So if the Messiah told us not to then why do they who are his top disciples tell us to do so!!!???+ You Know why? Its because w are supposed to be doing righteousness at all times!!! Psalms 106:3-4 That sure dose not sound like we have any room for not being perfect as your heavenly father is perfect Matthew 5:48. Thank you and Shalom. Christians are a Joke. Hebrew Israelite True worshiper we are the people of the Almighty and the ones that have the correct Biblical understanding of the Bible.
I agree with you. I just uploaded a video of myself that I made showing how the Bible never forbids judging in fact the Bible tells us how to judge did Jesus even said when you judge judge justly and the Bible never contradicts itself amen God bless you
It's a Quantum change, and it hasn't been the same since the Mandela effect. I remember it being judge not lest ye be judged, but that is not in the Bible in any version at all anymore.
@@bettertvreceptionwithfoilf7100 many verses in the Bible use different words, depending on what Bible you look at, but the message of the Bible doesnt change. Some Bibles use up to date modern words for a better/clearer understanding. Yet it is the same message. Example 1 Bible would say "i went to the store, I brought icecream" Another Bible would say "At that time I entered the store, so I can get some icecream " Different, yet same message
@@archangel_gold2451 but when Bible started exchanging wild ox with unicorn, you have to admit there's a change. By the way, try to find any translation with judge not lest ye be judged. Maybe then you'll understand what I'm saying.
We can judge. But such is by the conviction of the Spirit (John 16: 8). We are convicted whether our judgement is acceptable or not acceptable. In the end we have to judge, part of our lives. I judged the apples I bought today were good to buy. When we are led by the conviction of the Spirit, all we do is righteous. If we follow our own convictions then all we do is so.
Recognizing and calling out bad fruit is different from judging. "You spit in my food; I do not appreciate that." That is not only a fact but that is a rebuke. "You spit in my food because you are mad about your wife paying attention to me" That is a judgment because now you are making an assumption based on your opinion and proclaiming a truth about the motive of the heart. Only God can do that. If we make assumptions about someones motives of the heart we are putting ourselves in the place of God. Then we think we can fix people. Then we come up with ways to do that and the Holy Spirit is often left out. Also, the more you do this kind of judgment the more you will have people coming against you with judgments such as this. You reap what you sow. We are offended by our thoughts about why someone did something against us that may or may not be true. You cannot really know another person's heart. You may think you do but only God can truly do this. I like the King James version and many places judge as a verb is used but the Greek word for judge is not always the same. In many places it is discern. I believe there is a difference between judging someone and discerning fruit. Sounds picky but there are large implications. Vengeance is mine saith the Lord. When we have been sinned against or an offense has been inflicted upon us we can send that offense away and forgive. Or we can hold on to it and then we are going to experience what happens when roots of bitterness and forgiveness start to take hold and grow.
TRUTH!!! Its written Judge Not Lest You Be Judged - they will be given same opportunity what they do !!! N IS TRUE!!! N some want 2 Dis qualify you because of their judgements!!! That are evil jealous or envious or Arrogant !!! Or pridefull family full of them by Gossip !!!
Why is it that the most literal Christians read “Judge not lest you be judged,” then claim that isn’t what it means. But he’s right - one can help other Christians in love, but not people who are not. When I hear the passage, I hear that we should use the bible as a mirror, not binoculars; when saying, “why do you focus on the sawdust in your brother’s eye when you have a log in your own,” it does not mean not to not condemn others for sins you do, because a log is not a speck of sawdust. A log would be a person lacking love, humbleness, kindness, gentleness, humility. But if one is quick to judge, without mercy, with condemnation, with haughtiness, using legality as the Pharisees did to burden followers, so shall they be judged. Discernment, a judgement, and being judgmental are very different from each other. So while it is good to judge what is good and evil, it is against Christ’s teachings to decide who is a good and evil person, deem groups of people evil, decide who is and isn’t Christian according to one’s own beliefs and think they are infallible, or tell people they are going to hell, then claim it is done in love. No one believes it, because it isn’t true. Christ did not go around pointing at people and calling them whore, call tax collectors thieves and swindlers, etc. He ate with them. I believe the real Good News Jesus brought prior to his death is that God loved these people as they were. And hearing this for the first time, while not even acknowledged by the religious leaders of worthy, that news, that they do good, God loves them. They sin, God loves them. His love is unconditional, and receiving that love, it should make the follower change and love others unconditionally, with humility, with mercy and kindness. Unfortunately, what those outside the church see is Christians condemning nonChristians as lower - sinners, lost, rebelling against God, and in so, push people away from God. One street preacher often assumes that the people passing him by have a demon, even calls people demons. He tells them that they are all going to hell unless they follow his religion, and even his denomination. Catholics? Hell. Anyone who doesn’t think repentance is required to activate Salvation? Not Christians. Going to hell. Gay people? Well, they are reprobates, citing Romans, so unreachable, unredeemable. And the kicker? Then using the video to show how provoking a fight by condemning them to hell, leads to some passersby to get angry and lash out, then say to his followers, “see how these people are?” It does nothing but try and reinforce that nonbelievers are evil and morally inferior to Christians, which isn’t the truth. As a follower of Christ, I acknowledge I am a sinner, and forgiven not because I earned it, but through grace, so I have nothing to boast or be arrogant about. My forgiveness humbles me to see my neighbor as my neighbor, like me, not a sinner. And the good news i share is not the escape from hell focus, but the love that changes the heart. If Christians would focus more on loving our neighbor, as commanded. we would have a much better reputation than we do, and deserve.
I love how that is pulled straight from the holy Bible. Judge not and you shall not be judged and by what measurement you judge you will be judged with and how do you say to your brother remove the speck out of your eye when there is a speck in your own eye. Can't judge a book by it's cover.
1 Corinthians 2:15 ,6:2-3 Its just the opposite for believers. Saints will judge angels as well as the world. Non believers use the verse of " Do not judge others" to protect their sins and faults.
Todd Wagner, You offer a good meaning for what you feel the Lord meant, when he said in many different places in the Bible, "Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged, and Leave all Judging to God. I agree with you, that God gave to us the ability to know the difference between right from wrong, and he expects us to choose the right. Where much knowledge is given, much is expected. However, I do not believe that he was talking about judging ourselves as individuals. I believe that he was talking more about how we perceive the actions of others. I think that he was warning us about many issues of which come to mind in our decade at present, i.e the right to choose vs the light to life and all of the various LGBT issues. The Pope recently said that there are more important issues than these said two issues, i.e. the poor, the hungry, the homeless, how to ease tensions in the world to keep world peace and how to get along in society with all of our neighbors and not just those in our congregations. It seems like we would all be better off if we kept this commandment concerning judging. I think if we do what the command tells us to do and not try to put different meanings to it, we will all be better off.
I agree that verse is definitely among the most misunderstood and most taken out of context verses in the entire Bible, mostly by people who clearly are not saved and want to feel comfortable about their sins. I'd say certain verses in Hebrews 6 and 10 are the most misunderstood and misquoted by those who are really saved people. I don't know how many times I've had this verse thrown into my face. Explaining it to an unsaved person is generally a waste of time since they cannot understand spiritual things.
Judgement means opinion, it's unavoidable. The very fact that a person is of one faith and not another is a judgement. The verse really means don't be hypocritica.
I see a contradiction here. At some point it says that no one is righteous and that no one will ever be righteous. Then it says to be more righteous than the Pharisees and to be perfect. Which is it?
Judge not, lest ye be judged. To : " Judge not, that ye be not judged." Just one of hundreds upon hundreds of Mandella Efects (now "Mandela Effects") in the King James Bible including bottles and unicorns! Isaiah 11:6 Every Bible has "The Wolf also will dwell with the lamb." Instead of "The lion shall lie down with the lamb." And no more "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." Our Father who art to "Our Father which art" and "thy will be done on Earth" to "thy will be done in Earth" changes spell out: "Which in debts debtors"!
I SAY... Matthew 7:1 - "Judge not, lest ye be judged", should say, "PRE-JUDGE not, lest ye be PRE-JUDGED." Judging someone is not wrong. It's PRE-JUDGING that's wrong. Humans judge humans all the time. All you have to do is walk into any courtroom to see that. If I see you steal my car and I judge you to be a thief that is NOT wrong or sinful of me. But if my car is stolen and you LOOK like someone who might have stolen it - and based on that I declare you to BE a thief - THEN I am pre-judging you and that IS wrong.
@3:25 Matthew 7;15 is referring to Esau and their false prophet the white Jesus & the religious Institute of division with over a 1000 denominations called "Christianity". Not to say the Bible isn't true. If you overstand.
OK. You say, at 2:59, that "The context of every verse is 66 books." How about this one, then (that results in false Christians excoriating and publicly slandering anyone who brings it up): Matthew 5:27-28 in context with Luke 17:1-3a (in the NIV it is the first paragraph of the chapter). Tell me, do you put those two together with each other from your pulpit, or do you let women get away with destroying men because of leadership cowardice?
The Word of God makes clear for we do in fact have the right to make discerning judgments whereby exposing the false prophets/teachers in order to help prevent the millions upon millions of people being be lead further n further away from the true gospel of Jesus Christ by the false prophets lies and deceptions: John 7:24 24 Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly Titus 1:9-13 9 He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. 10 For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group. 11 They must be silenced, because they are disrupting whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach-and that for the sake of dishonest gain. 12 One of Crete’s own prophets has said it: “Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.” 13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith 1 Corinthians 5:11-13 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people. 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you." 1 Timothy 5:20 20 As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear. Romans 16:17-18 17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. 2 Timothy 4:2-4 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables Acts 20:28-30 28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood. 29 I know that after I leave, wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. 30 Even from your own number, men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. 2 John 9-11 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
I gotta say that judge lest you be judged means that their are also things that we can not rightly judge because we can not understand...God sees all that is unseen...he sees so much more. God is good. Man has a sinful nature and demons tempting him. These people are so hard with scripture they like and literally scoff the scripture that they don't like. All that talking didn't protect Tod from rare deadly cancer....not the Holy Spirit. God sees everything and the demons are watching waiting for Tod's heart.

I know you asked about a video but this is a very simple book written during the mid 80's by a well know evangelist. Their are many ways to study the bible..topically, a character study, studying entire books and ect. Topical is the easiest as the author points out. For instance lets say I want to know what they the bible says about counsel. I look up every verse where the word counsel appears and study the verse. I might have to read the verse before and after or the entire chapter to really understand what it is saying. Check out the book on amazon and you won't be disappointed. www.amazon.com/How-Study-Bible-TORREY-R/dp/0883681641/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1495000297&sr=8-1 www.amazon.com/How-Study-Your-Bible-Life-Changing/dp/0736953434/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495000532&sr=8-1&keywords=how+to+study+the+bible+kay+arthur The last books are for basic beginners to get the jist. Their are other little books on different books in the bible www.amazon.com/Walking-Power-Love-Discipline-Inductive/dp/0736908110/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495000671&sr=8-1&keywords=walking+in+power+love+and+discipline
If your judgment is such that you deem the other person to be less of a person than you, if your judgment is meant to put the other down and to elevate yourself to be better, then YOU will be judged by God to be guilty of the sin of pride and to have made a lesser person of yourself.
Although christians may not always get the message across perfectly, the real thing is that: If you claim to have a relationship with God, you are a child of God. God commands us to Love God, and you Love god by Loving his children (1 John 5:2). Love means that we point out each other's errors because we walk in light, not in darkness. (Mathew 28:18-29, Mark 5:16) If I try to love a brother in Christ but they reject God's word (Isaiah 5:24).
Judging the act and judging the person are 2 different things. It is the difference between guilt and shame. We may condemn a persons actions and find them guilty but we must not condemn their being and shame them. That is God’s to judge. When you ask “what kind of person would do such a thing”, the answer is always the same: a person who understands God’s will imperfectly. Who among us can say we perfectly understand God’s will? But though we may not understand perfectly, we are responsible nevertheless for our actions. Hold people responsible for their actions, do not condemn their imperfect being.
Are you reading from the KJV? Have you realized yet that the scripture has changed and now says 'that' rather than 'lest'? The Lord's prayer now says, 'thy will IN earth, rather than on earth?' And when speaking of new wine mixed with old, it is no longer wineskin, but bottles? Oh, and what about the scripture that speaks of the LION that will lay with the lamb, it now says wolf? I am speaking from the same KJV Bible I've had since the 80's, not a newer one. This is known as a work of the "Mandela effect'. There are many other examples, but since we are speaking of the Bible, I'm only listing these few scriptures.....
This is why so many people walk away from God.. who knows who has the right to judge. If you have a log in your own eye how can you see to take the log out of another person's eye. The blind is leading the blind.. Jesus said to go out and preach the Good word. Women are to be silent? THE first human that preached the good news was a women. There is none that is good no not one. How do we know all of the sins we commit? Catholics spill out all their sins to a priest. JESUS is the high priest. So go to Jesus when our thoughts are not heard than we worship in vain. Prayer is in darkness .
What did Jesus mean when he said do not Judge? I won't really answer the question but I will take 8 min to show you that in other parts of the bible it in fact does teach that we are to make judgements about people .....did that answer your question? No not really but thanks for trying
Discern the end times . Jesus said at the end the sons of Nineveh would rise up and condemn this nation for they repented at the teachings of Jonah. When a nation makes it law for Homosexuals to marry be on watch for the Sons of God .
Matthew 7:15-20 is not talking about their fruit as a person and how they live, but what they preach. If they are not preaching the gospel (First Corinthians 15:1-4) and salvation by grace, (Romans 11:6) then they are a false teacher preaching a false gospel of works salvation. Jesus goes on to say, that many will come before Him on that day telling Him about all their good words, How they cast out demons in His name, and did many wonderful works, in His name. They thought they were saved by how they lived and what they did, but never did the will of the Father. What is the will of the Father? John 6:40 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that all that seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have eternal life, and I will raise Him up on the last day. First Corinthians 15:1-4 is the gospel. That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures, that He was buried and rose again on the third day, according to the scriptures. When we believe that gospel we are given eternal life through the seal of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit who is our seal unto the day of redemption. Second Timothy 2:19 The Lord knows His sheep because they have His seal of the Holy Spirit in them. John 6:39 He has never lost one. False teachers preach another gospel of salvation by works and not grace. Romans 11:6, and Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. False teachers preach a false gospel that if we keep Gods laws and do good works we will be saved by what we do instead of what Jesus has already done. Our salvation is always based on what Jesus has done, not on what we do. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me hath everlasting life. Present tense. All believers have eternal life. John 3:18 We can no longer be condemned because all or our sins have been paid in full forever. Galatians 1:7-9 Though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you, than that we have preached unto you, let them be accursed. As we said before, so say I again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that which ye have received, let Him be accursed
We can not be saved by how we live and what we do or we would be our own savior and Jesus died in vain. We are saved by what He did for us, not by what we do. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believe on Him who justifieth the ungodly. (all of us ) his faith is counted for righteousness. When we believe the gospel, we are given His righteousness, and He will no more impute sin to our account. Romans 4:6-8. Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, what we do or do not do, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it except to believe. Salvation is all grace, not works. We can not add what we do to what Jesus has already done. AMAZING GRACE, JESUS PAID IT ALL AND WE PAID 0. IT IS FREE. Romans 6:23
It depends on what you mean by fruit. Mathew 7:15-20 is talking about the fruit of false teachers who preach a message of grace plus works. Romans 4:4 Shows us God can not be debt to us. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believe on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Since salvation is a free gift from God, we have nothing to boast in. Jesus paid it all and we paid 0. We can only work out of debt, a debt we could never pay. But Jesus, just because He loved us, paid the debt for us. First Corinthians 15:1-4 Since heaven is not a reward for anything we do, and it is a free gift from God, we can only do what we do to bring glory to God. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, and we all sin, but the GIFT of God is eternal life. Eternal life is the gift for believing that Jesus died in our place and took all of our sins upon Him. John 3:18 We can never be condemned again. Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it. Romans 11:6 It is all grace, not works. No one can earn heaven by what we do. We can earn rewards in heaven by how we live after we have received the free gift of eternal life, and we do reap what we sow here, but our salvation is by what Jesus did, not by what we do or do not do. Our works. So we are saved the minute we trust Jesus as our savior whether we ever produce any fruit at all, but we will be rewarded in heaven for the good works we have done. Never for salvation. That is a free gift we could never do any thing for. We can not add works to grace.
Sure, fine, but then Christians need to stop saying "stop shoving it down my throat" whenever we (gays) are discussing topics relevant to us in Facebook groups, going about our lives normally. Stop saying "nobody cares that you're gay!" when a lot of you are interjecting. If you are preaching because you believe homosexuality is wrong by faith, then you're also "shoving it down our throats" and you also care, a lot. So pick these phrases and stop preaching, or preach away and stop using those phrases.
I just had this moment with my ten yr old nephew ,it felt like Jesus was speaking threw me last night. I'm not church going person but I do believe in God ,jesus and bible! I'm not the perfect person, but in my yrs I have been thru alot and seen alot of where ppl can be successful and where they down fall, my nephew has 2 drug addict parents , now there not the worse ppl but not great choice they make either , my nephews cousin just died , ( my sister and I take care of my nephew and support him on so many levels) so I was sitting car waiting for my 10 yr old nephew to get done visiting with his mom and I happen go in find out if he was staying or not completely his choice since his dad has custody, and he and parents admit they let him smoke pot cuz of who died , well I had couple thoughts run thru my mind, k I been here done that so I turn around in tone of my mother and said to him I understand where u coming from and y ur doing it BUT these are not the good choices we make when we want to be a successful NFL player ,( it was like God was speaking threw me like I'm not judging u but this not road to righteousness or success , I got to biggest look from there parents like what heck did I just do him ) it's like wake up ppl u might be parents but doesn't mean u have tools to be parents but on other hand I been down this road myself and was able to mostly get off this road of self distraction and try be on road with god ,I was able to provide the voice he need to hear threw darkness and he told he didn't care but on that level reading my nephew he heard me and I know it cuz I know there son better then parents and at end of the my saying something and lil time went by for him think about it I said my good byes said I love u !
A false prophet preaches salvation by works and not grace. Romans 11:6 and Ephesians 2:8-9 Unbelievers trust in their works for salvation, and have never received the free gift of salvation by faith alone. They believe they can earn heaven by how they live and what they do. They tell Jesus about all their good works, how they prophesied in His name, and cast out demons in His name, and did many wonderful works, in his name. And Jesus tells them, depart form me ye that work iniquity, I never knew you. Not I did know you, and now I don't, I never knew you. Why did Jesus say He never knew them. He said they never did he will of His Father. What is the will of His Father. John :40 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that all that seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. These people thought they could earn heaven by how they lived an what they did. But never trusted Jesus as the only way of salvation by grace. They were never born again. Romans 8:9 Without the Spirit of God, their is no salvation. How do we get the Spirit? The Gospel, First Corinthians 15:1-4 That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures, that He was buried and rose again on the third day, according to the scriptures. When we believe that gospel we are sealed by the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in who also AFTER ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise. BORN AGAIN. Born into Gods family. A child of God forever. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit in whom ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. We can not be saved by our works, what we do, but only by Jesus finished work on the cross plus nothing. We can only receive the free gift of eternal life by faith alone in Christ alone. Not by anything we do or do not do. Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith, apart from the deeds of the law. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, and we all sin, but the GIFT of God is eternal life. Ephesians 2:89 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of your selves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, what we do or do not do, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it. It is a free gift from God. But those who trust in their works, keeping the law and doing good works, are not saved. Only those who have trusted Jesus as the only way of salvation by grace are saved. Romans 11:6, salvation is all grace, not works. Only those who have been born again by believing the gospel that Jesus paid our sin debt in full, and we can never be condemned again are saved. John 3:18 When we believe the gospel we are given eternal life through the Holy Spirit who seals us unto the day of redemption. John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the children of God, EVEN TO THEM THAT BELEIVE ON HIS NAME. First John 5:13 These things have I written unto you, that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know ye have eternal life.
i see, i thought god could communicate to us without having some former inline-skaters explaining. the moment, the very moment, you hear, "what god means is ..." take a step back.
what sort of god do you believe in that cannot say ownership of another human, rape of another human, the beating to near-death of another human is wrong?
So if your fruit is how we decern you. You are not telling us why you are reading a scripture incorrectly? Judge not, lest you be judged. This scripture was never in the Bible? You need to talk about the Bible changes!!! Shalom!!!😇
I Love what Todd said at 8:05. "Silence In The Mist Of Sin Is A Sin." I know Satan wants us to cover our Sins, Because I know Christ wants us to Confess our Sins. Why? "If We Confess Our Sins To God, He Will Keep His Promise And Do What Is Right: He Will Forgive Us Our Sins And Purify Us From All Our Wrongdoing." (John 1:9). Amen.
Scripture tells you to correct your Christian siblings and to not have fellowship with those who knowingly continue in sin. It does NOT tell Christians to badger and condemn and punish anyone whom they consider to be sinful.
The English word "judge" is used in different ways in the New Testament. Don't confuse 'condemnation' with 'discernment.'
Thank you James exactly!!!! This salesman Tod has evil spirits that help him sound Luke he know and follows the bible but he is used by those demons to harass and CONDEMN others. He keep saying, "You are an adult" to belittle those who disagree with him. I have discernment and these folks tell big lies and talk you to death or harass until you submit. This us no more than mind controlling people deominic...demonic is ALWAYS bad fruit. No demon ever pushed me in the right direction. The Holy Spirit still has my back...The people will head rape you if you keep listening to their false doctrine and hypocrisy. I gotta add these folk are NOT gentle. They are passive aggressive. People need to discern the difference. I would like to see these false teachers get rebuked sued hospitalized or anything else that Jesus wants to correct them with. These people are very Dangerous sales people.
+Savannah McKenzie Your response is so hypocritical. You states above "demons to harass& CONDEMN others" is what you viewed through the video. He clearly states how it should be done & with what intentions.
Your evil desire for them -" false teachers get rebuked sued hospitalized" Is very far from CHRIST LIKE nor HOLY SPIRIT LED..God bless you!
Audi Fan How about you break all those false accusations into an intelligent debate and don't insult blood Jesus with your sarcastic "God bless!!" I go to mature ministries to learn. You kids are wasting my time. Yes Lord Jehovah punishes people with consequences such as demons hospitalization Ect...His judgments are righteous. You do not have the discernment to know the different and are quite honest a turd for a brain. I do pray you. God bless and don't ever get in my face or I will rebuke you!!!
excellent discern the spirit keeps us on the narrow path
I pray that you submit to almighty God! You are confused with your understanding. I hope you find a place that can truly help you with understanding the word of God.
A relationship with God is a blessed life!
Over the past 10 years me and my wife have noticed a consistent rise of people using the "don't judge others" tactic, and most often doing this with frivolous attempts to thwart anyone's Christian principles because they don't line up with their ungodly views, beliefs, etc. We often provide the verses that clarify the passage from the Bible concerning judging, and also ask them if the Bible does not allow us to discern right from wrong based on God's word and then teach these things to others, then every pastor would be in violation of judging others. However this most often ends up getting responded with them starting a new point and/or with very foul language. Another problem that is very common anymore is those who are calling Christians out on having judged others but based on their own definition, they are now judging and would be just as wrong as us.
....so unless the Holy Spirit is directly touching you for you to continue trying to reach through to them, you can only respectfully walk away from what is turned into an argument, and then pray for them as well as asking God to open our own hearts and minds in how to talk to unbelievers that they will have an ear to hear the awesome truth of God's word
Get-The-Lead-Out.45 Amen
you are right. They do this to shut you up. To muzzle you into silence
When you judge too, you invite judgement upon yourself. We all judge through our own biases to some extent, but the Father will judge us through pure objectivity. The Pharisees judged Jesus based on their own self interests but behind a facade of god ordained authority. However, the Father will judge their false judgements against his son from a place of pure truth.
That's why he also says in Bible those without sins cast the first stone when came to whore name mary,
Speak for yourself playaaaa. First take the plank out of your own eye then you will be able to see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye
I know that what the scripture says is true forever. They study the scriptures because they think that in them they find eternal life
WRONG.. THERE'S ONLY ONE BOOK IN THE BIBLE THAT HASN'T BEEN ADULTERATED BY MAN FOR GREED AND EXTORTION.
Genesis and Revelation. Bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you. by doing so you'll heap burning coals upon his head.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 21 I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.
This 'Do not judge' cult is everywhere.
Juan Olivier There is a larger cult of judging harshly of those outside the church, and a number of people on youtube saying other Christians aren’t Christians and going to hell.
Not that
hey prick do you like being JUDGED?? unless you hate yourself im sure you don't...so why would you judge another you piece of shit
@Jasson Reyes shut it
@@Theboywhoatelasagna of course there is, why wouldn't they say that lol, but then again, those 'other' christians are saying exactly the same thing about them too, so maybe in reality all of them are going to hell because all they do is judge and bully others lol sad state of life where you 'need' a book to tell you that you should be respectful of others.
Matthew 7:1 & Luke 6:37 refers to PASSING Judgment -- an action, a verb, getting even, vengeance, doing something to somebody. Anyone who tells you it is wrong to make judgments about other people is the greatest hypocrite you will ever meet !!
Do you remember it with the word lest in it? Has it supernaturally changed as 1,000s of us think? Shalom!
Amen brothers, wonderful & Biblical response.

thank you for putting this video out for christian. In these last days those who claim to be christians and dwelling sexual pervasion (homosexuality, lesbianism, adultery,fornication) use matthew 7vs1 as a tool to shut down rebuke. unfortunately many of us christians dont read the Bible thats why these people are able to take the scripture out of context further they ignore other scriptures in the Bible which allow christian to judge righteously and with love. Let the True worshipers of Yeshua arise and stand firm, be bold and rebuke those who claim to be christians but they want to hold on to SIN
Shalom
Yes! Recommended teaching!
One of the most misused verses in the Bible is, "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (Matthew 7: 1). In verses 2-5 of this same chapter it is evident that verse 1 refers specifically to hypocritical judgment. A brother who has a beam in his own eye should not be judging the brother who may have a mote in his eye. The lesson is very clear, you cannot and must not judge another for his sin if you are guilty of the SAME SIN. An obvious example of this is the fallen pastor Ted Haggard who preached continually against homosexuality while at the same time he was a practising homosexual.
The verse does NOT mean that you must never judge ANYONE. Jesus said to the religious Pharisees, "O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh" (Matthew 12:34). To many evangelicals and some fundamentalists, this would be unacceptable language today, but it is biblical language and it came from the mouth of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Paul named Peter publicly. Peter was guilty of unscriptural practice. "But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed ... But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?" (Galatians 2:11-14). The whole issue revolved around salvation by the law or by grace. When the integrity and purity of the gospel are at stake, we have no choice: we must expose error and name names.

Very good word. Because I always said, "God gave me a brain and I can look at a situation and discern, which is a judgment. So what does this mean?" So, thank you very much for this explanation.
I also feel judgment can be condemnation. We don't condemn one another, but deal with issues, in love and seek peace, as much as possible with that person.
Thanks again for this word. 🕆
This is one of the best series I’ve come across

What Bible is that in? KJV says Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that you be not judged. I think this scripture supernaturally changed! These pastors should be telling you this. Shalom! Quantum effect a.k.a. the Mandela Effect is black magic. Shalom!😍
So um...is he the son of God, or is he God. I'm so confused.
I don’t know. My take away is as follows:
Don’t judge others,
Judge yourself instead.
When you’ve cleared out all your sins then you can pass judgement on others (this won’t ever happen, so just don’t judge others).
God’s role is the only one who will judge us all.
Think of it this way, if we are all sinners, then we need to reflect introspectively.
Not to go around finding mistakes in others while we are not free of sin ourselves.
If a brother comes to you for your help then okay but be humble and advise him, but “don’t throw pearls to swine” for those others who didn’t ask your opinion.
This “judging others” is different from “discerning” what’s right and wrong. The holy spirit guides us to discern but that doesn’t mean that we should openly criticize others.
BE HUMBLE
Am I wrong? Let me know your opinion, brothers.
Hello 👋 I agree that we need to clear ourselves out of sins yet sometimes, we need our brothers or sisters in faith to make us aware of it first or vice versa. But we should do it privately, gently and out of love. Oftentimes, we wont do it for fear that the other party does not welcome it or they might find fault against us.
I would like to suggest checking out this video Judge Not by 119 Ministries th-cam.com/video/AGPUulVecmk/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
It clearly explains in light of the other scriptures. Truly, God's Word will not contradict itself. May we know the truth, apply it in our lives and share it. God bless u!
@@jeannettie7962 thanks for your input, I’ll check it out 🙏
Found my congregation asking this question a lot so I just made a video on it on my channel as well. You guys had a great discussion on it! There is a lot of misunderstanding for sure, context is SO important!
Father God, thank you that we learn to see through your eyes in matters of judging ourselves and others! In accordance with this word and leviticus 19:15, matthew 7:2, john 7:24, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 I bind myself, my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquintances, opponents and the body of Christ to judge rightly and be judged rightly, while I loosen myself of every unequal yoke and common share with those lacking to judge righy and lacking to be judged rightly, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!
Its called being an alpha Male and I'm proud of that it caused me to never be jealous of anyone
Judging is positive and negative not just negative, like most like to believe.
My brother you are right for Jesus never compromised love for truth, it's because he loves you is why he tells you the truth. And we being followers of Christ need to judge righteously and not for resentment, jealousy or envy.
John 7:24
Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement.
We judge that which the Lord is against but we judge not the person, but with charity guide him back to the path of righteousness.
As God set judgement upon the children of Israel, but did not cast them away, not only for the covenant he made with their fathers, but it's because he loved them.
The great love of our Lord and of his Son Jesus Christ be with you, Amen
What that verse means is if you pass judgement on someone and you have your own issues with sin, the way you judge that individual is the way you will be judged for your sin. For example, if your judgement is harsh, the judgement you receive will be harsh. If your judgement is forgiving, the judgement you receive will be forgiving.
Just my interpretation. Not meant to be etched in stone.
Nice video God Bless!
x BrentMan Thanks so much!
Thank You...You know whow you get a teaching so good it Bears Witness! You feel Satisfied.! Praise God!
I agree context should be used to determine our understanding of any scripture. If we notice the context here, just two verses before Jesus says "judge not", He says "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
So how do we receive "His righteousness"? Isn't it the righteousness which is of God by faith?
And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Philippians 3:9
The focus of Matthew 7:1-5 by most has been on sin. The true focus is meant to be on "His righteousness". Jesus is saying we cannot judge ourselves or each other based on sin. If we are His, we have *ALL* been justified through the righteousness of faith! Jesus is distinguishing between trust in Him and trust in religion throughout the whole chapter!
And this is the reason some not all christian ministers go unchecked or not held accountable for there actions
The very first word you hear is judge not and they go fo years abusing those verses misinterpreting the chapter
Silence in the midst of sin is a sin.....the last sentence Wags said...is a tough one!
Very well explained thanks.Yes we have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory and but for Gods gift of grace I'm am a wretched man.Satan twists judging he doesn't want me to warn others that they r in error because he wants them to stay in error and be on the broad way!Lets pray that we r all on the truth of his word and not a Pharisees!
+Stephen Ireland Thanks for the comment!
What does it mean “Remove the beam for your own eye and then you will see clearly enough to remove the mote in someone else’s eye?" I thought it mean’t that before you judge others, consider all that you have been through in your own life, the ups and downs, the “sins" you have committed etc and then you will see clearly enough not to judge the person who you have very little knowledge about. And then by doing so you will understand the grace and wonderful traits of Jesus Christ. Other related quotes: “Forgive seventy times seven.” “He is with out sin cast the first stone.” Please forgive me if I am not accurate.
Judge not another man based on their works. Judge others with grace, like we want God to judge us. Yet we do have the responsibility of telling others if what they are doing is a sin, wrong, harmful to oneself and or others, taking into account that we ourselves have done many things wrong in this life, so in a brotherish manner encourage others to leave behind sins, repent and find forgiveness, mercy and overflowing love, in the name of Jesus Christ, rather than let them perish in their sins. Thats what I got out of this video. You are welcome to correct me. Lord have mercy on me, a sinner.
God judge us according to our works,not grace,no way you can judge other and call it grace,only christian is under grace,judgement for unbeliever is not grace
@@ManlyServant so our “works” have to be good enough to get us into heaven, and not the blood of Jesus?
@@Simple_Worship_Guitar completely unrelated
JUDGE people with righteous judge,if they are homosexual,JUDGE them,if they are fornicator,JUDGE them,rebuke and did it ALL OPENLY if you want to make people fear
@@ManlyServant the only people Jesus rebuked openly were the Pharisees who went about pointing out the sins of others. He could’ve made a spectacle out of the woman caught right in the act of adultery. The Pharisees did rebuke her openly, and wanted to stone her. Jesus told them that the one without sin could cast the first stone…and none qualified under not having any sin. Then when ALONE (not openly) with the woman, he said “Neither do I condemn thee. Go and sin no more.”

I love this channel. Great job
Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for to share on my FB page(Melanie schurr). God bless!
We judge by what God says not by our own opinion.
Well, yes,but the opinion can be biblically based but we can have two different interpretations and disagree.
Wow!!!!!!
Wonderful teaching!!!
Katriel Jacobs1 second ago
First I want to say that the bible does not say that we are not to JUDGE! This is one of the most misinterpreted verses in the Bible. The Messiah is clear in Matthew 7:1-5. If you read Chapter 6 you will see that he is not referring to the whole nation of Israel, but to the JUDGES of Israel who were the PHARISEES AND THE SADDUCEE'S. They were the court Judges and the teachers who would judge you in matters of wrong, and they were teachers of the nation who would guide the people in there life and give them advice on right and wrong. When you read Matthew ch-6 ch-7 as well as chapter 23 you will see one problem. They were Judging the people but they weren't living up to the standards that they set for the people! So The Messiah Yahshua Knowing all there dirt(which the people did not know) Called them out on there lives which were poor examples of the positions they held. So that's that. 1 Corinthians 5:9-13 proves what i am saying, because the Apostle PAUL here clearly tells us to judge each other!!!! he says that we have no right to judge sinners they are doing what there supposes to do SIN! And YAHWEH will judge them! But the people in the assembly we have every right to judge!!!! to keep a clean house! And i don't have to be %100 perfect to judge you, i just have to be genuine and heart felt when i come to you about what i think you need to stop so sin does not run rammped in the assembly. read also 1 Peter 4:17-19. So these men CLEARLY tell us to judge!!!! So if the Messiah told us not to then why do they who are his top disciples tell us to do so!!!???+
You Know why? Its because w are supposed to be doing righteousness at all times!!! Psalms 106:3-4 That sure dose not sound like we have any room for not being perfect as your heavenly father is perfect Matthew 5:48. Thank you and Shalom. Christians are a Joke. Hebrew Israelite True worshiper we are the people of the Almighty and the ones that have the correct Biblical understanding of the Bible.
I was told that I will never be a Christian...Grandma Williams said it best
It means only god shall pass judgment, and those that judge shall be judged by God on judgement day
Silence in the midst of sin is a sin!
YES Was Told by my own fam , hub n others n who wver will listen Not So!!!
I agree with you. I just uploaded a video of myself that I made showing how the Bible never forbids judging in fact the Bible tells us how to judge did Jesus even said when you judge judge justly and the Bible never contradicts itself amen God bless you
This was awesome man!!! Thank you soo much!!
Good God is always with in everywere
"Judge not that ye be not judged " . King James bible.
Where did they get "lest ye be judged"?
It's a Quantum change, and it hasn't been the same since the Mandela effect. I remember it being judge not lest ye be judged, but that is not in the Bible in any version at all anymore.
Who cares, it still means same thing.
Christians care, but you're missing the point. The verse has changed.
@@bettertvreceptionwithfoilf7100 many verses in the Bible use different words, depending on what Bible you look at, but the message of the Bible doesnt change. Some Bibles use up to date modern words for a better/clearer understanding. Yet it is the same message.
Example
1 Bible would say
"i went to the store, I brought icecream"
Another Bible would say
"At that time I entered the store, so I can get some icecream "
Different, yet same message
@@archangel_gold2451 but when Bible started exchanging wild ox with unicorn, you have to admit there's a change. By the way, try to find any translation with judge not lest ye be judged. Maybe then you'll understand what I'm saying.
We can judge. But such is by the conviction of the Spirit (John 16: 8). We are convicted whether our judgement is acceptable or not acceptable. In the end we have to judge, part of our lives. I judged the apples I bought today were good to buy. When we are led by the conviction of the Spirit, all we do is righteous. If we follow our own convictions then all we do is so.
This cleared things up a bit.... #AllinChrist
Recognizing and calling out bad fruit is different from judging.
"You spit in my food; I do not appreciate that." That is not only a fact but that is a rebuke.
"You spit in my food because you are mad about your wife paying attention to me" That is a judgment because now you are making an assumption based on your opinion and proclaiming a truth about the motive of the heart. Only God can do that. If we make assumptions about someones motives of the heart we are putting ourselves in the place of God. Then we think we can fix people. Then we come up with ways to do that and the Holy Spirit is often left out.
Also, the more you do this kind of judgment the more you will have people coming against you with judgments such as this. You reap what you sow.
We are offended by our thoughts about why someone did something against us that may or may not be true. You cannot really know another person's heart. You may think you do but only God can truly do this.
I like the King James version and many places judge as a verb is used but the Greek word for judge is not always the same. In many places it is discern. I believe there is a difference between judging someone and discerning fruit. Sounds picky but there are large implications.
Vengeance is mine saith the Lord. When we have been sinned against or an offense has been inflicted upon us we can send that offense away and forgive. Or we can hold on to it and then we are going to experience what happens when roots of bitterness and forgiveness start to take hold and grow.
So powerful. You just helped me. Thank you. 🕆
Matthew 7:1-2 is the most quoted passage of all time and for good reason
Out of context it means the opposite
To Judge: Verb/ To form an opinion.
Proverbs 27:5 says to judge 🧑⚖️
TRUTH!!! Its written Judge Not Lest You Be Judged - they will be given same opportunity what they do !!! N IS TRUE!!! N some want 2 Dis qualify you because of their judgements!!! That are evil jealous or envious or Arrogant !!! Or pridefull family full of them by Gossip !!!
Why is it that the most literal Christians read “Judge not lest you be judged,” then claim that isn’t what it means.
But he’s right - one can help other Christians in love, but not people who are not.
When I hear the passage, I hear that we should use the bible as a mirror, not binoculars; when saying, “why do you focus on the sawdust in your brother’s eye when you have a log in your own,” it does not mean not to not condemn others for sins you do, because a log is not a speck of sawdust. A log would be a person lacking love, humbleness, kindness, gentleness, humility.
But if one is quick to judge, without mercy, with condemnation, with haughtiness, using legality as the Pharisees did to burden followers, so shall they be judged.
Discernment, a judgement, and being judgmental are very different from each other.
So while it is good to judge what is good and evil, it is against Christ’s teachings to decide who is a good and evil person, deem groups of people evil, decide who is and isn’t Christian according to one’s own beliefs and think they are infallible, or tell people they are going to hell, then claim it is done in love.
No one believes it, because it isn’t true.
Christ did not go around pointing at people and calling them whore, call tax collectors thieves and swindlers, etc. He ate with them. I believe the real Good News Jesus brought prior to his death is that God loved these people as they were. And hearing this for the first time, while not even acknowledged by the religious leaders of worthy, that news, that they do good, God loves them. They sin, God loves them. His love is unconditional, and receiving that love, it should make the follower change and love others unconditionally, with humility, with mercy and kindness.
Unfortunately, what those outside the church see is Christians condemning nonChristians as lower - sinners, lost, rebelling against God, and in so, push people away from God. One street preacher often assumes that the people passing him by have a demon, even calls people demons. He tells them that they are all going to hell unless they follow his religion, and even his denomination. Catholics? Hell. Anyone who doesn’t think repentance is required to activate Salvation? Not Christians. Going to hell. Gay people? Well, they are reprobates, citing Romans, so unreachable, unredeemable.
And the kicker? Then using the video to show how provoking a fight by condemning them to hell, leads to some passersby to get angry and lash out, then say to his followers, “see how these people are?”
It does nothing but try and reinforce that nonbelievers are evil and morally inferior to Christians, which isn’t the truth. As a follower of Christ, I acknowledge I am a sinner, and forgiven not because I earned it, but through grace, so I have nothing to boast or be arrogant about. My forgiveness humbles me to see my neighbor as my neighbor, like me, not a sinner.
And the good news i share is not the escape from hell focus, but the love that changes the heart.
If Christians would focus more on loving our neighbor, as commanded. we would have a much better reputation than we do, and deserve.
I love how that is pulled straight from the holy Bible. Judge not and you shall not be judged and by what measurement you judge you will be judged with and how do you say to your brother remove the speck out of your eye when there is a speck in your own eye. Can't judge a book by it's cover.
1 Corinthians 2:15 ,6:2-3 Its just the opposite for believers. Saints will judge angels as well as the world. Non believers use the verse of " Do not judge others" to protect their sins and faults.
Todd Wagner, You offer a good meaning for what you feel the Lord meant, when he said in many different places in the Bible, "Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged, and Leave all Judging to God.
I agree with you, that God gave to us the ability to know the difference between right from wrong, and he expects us to choose the right. Where much knowledge is given, much is expected.
However, I do not believe that he was talking about judging ourselves as individuals. I believe that he was talking more about how we perceive the actions of others.
I think that he was warning us about many issues of which come to mind in our decade at present, i.e the right to choose vs the light to life and all of the various LGBT issues.
The Pope recently said that there are more important issues than these said two issues, i.e. the poor, the hungry, the homeless, how to ease tensions in the world to keep world peace and how to get along in society with all of our neighbors and not just those in our congregations.
It seems like we would all be better off if we kept this commandment concerning judging. I think if we do what the command tells us to do and not try to put different meanings to it, we will all be better off.
Do you remember it saying lest in the Bible? Apparently it never had the word lest in it? Shalom!
@@conspiracynikkikimmi5765 its true
I'm gonna rewatch this again. This really interesting.
STAND STILL AND LISTEN
It means only christ has the right to judge
I agree that verse is definitely among the most misunderstood and most taken out of context verses in the entire Bible, mostly by people who clearly are not saved and want to feel comfortable about their sins. I'd say certain verses in Hebrews 6 and 10 are the most misunderstood and misquoted by those who are really saved people. I don't know how many times I've had this verse thrown into my face. Explaining it to an unsaved person is generally a waste of time since they cannot understand spiritual things.
Judgement means opinion, it's unavoidable.
The very fact that a person is of one faith and not another is a judgement.
The verse really means don't be hypocritica.
this is a truth.
Excellent!
Corey Cheek Thanks!
I see a contradiction here. At some point it says that no one is righteous and that no one will ever be righteous. Then it says to be more righteous than the Pharisees and to be perfect. Which is it?
It no longer says Judge not lest ye be judged?
Judge not, lest ye be judged. To : " Judge not, that ye be not judged." Just one of hundreds upon hundreds of Mandella Efects (now "Mandela Effects") in the King James Bible including bottles and unicorns! Isaiah 11:6 Every Bible has "The Wolf also will dwell with the lamb." Instead of "The lion shall lie down with the lamb." And no more "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." Our Father who art to "Our Father which art" and "thy will be done on Earth" to "thy will be done in Earth" changes spell out: "Which in debts debtors"!
I SAY... Matthew 7:1 - "Judge not, lest ye be judged", should say, "PRE-JUDGE not, lest ye be PRE-JUDGED." Judging someone is not wrong. It's PRE-JUDGING that's wrong. Humans judge humans all the time. All you have to do is walk into any courtroom to see that. If I see you steal my car and I judge you to be a thief that is NOT wrong or sinful of me. But if my car is stolen and you LOOK like someone who might have stolen it - and based on that I declare you to BE a thief - THEN I am pre-judging you and that IS wrong.
Good video I have a question
Thank you.
God is everywere!
Good Evening❤🎉
@3:25 Matthew 7;15 is referring to Esau and their false prophet the white Jesus & the religious Institute of division with over a 1000 denominations called "Christianity". Not to say the Bible isn't true. If you overstand.
Judge not, lest ye be judged is NOT a verse.
Please show this reference in scripture as you have it presented in your title.
OK. You say, at 2:59, that "The context of every verse is 66 books."
How about this one, then (that results in false Christians excoriating and publicly slandering anyone who brings it up):
Matthew 5:27-28 in context with Luke 17:1-3a (in the NIV it is the first paragraph of the chapter). Tell me, do you put those two together with each other from your pulpit, or do you let women get away with destroying men because of leadership cowardice?
So what does it mean then?
Great questions
The Word of God makes clear for we do in fact have the right to make discerning judgments whereby exposing the false prophets/teachers in order to help prevent the millions upon millions of people being be lead further n further away from the true gospel of Jesus Christ by the false prophets lies and deceptions:
John 7:24
24 Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly
Titus 1:9-13
9 He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.
10 For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group.
11 They must be silenced, because they are disrupting whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach-and that for the sake of dishonest gain.
12 One of Crete’s own prophets has said it: “Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.”
13 This saying is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith
1 Corinthians 5:11-13
11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside?
13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you."
1 Timothy 5:20
20 As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.
Romans 16:17-18
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
2 Timothy 4:2-4
2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;
4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables
Acts 20:28-30
28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.
29 I know that after I leave, wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.
30 Even from your own number, men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.
2 John 9-11
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Is the ok for those who false judge me without true? Its the ok for Jesus if people do this?
I gotta say that judge lest you be judged means that their are also things that we can not rightly judge because we can not understand...God sees all that is unseen...he sees so much more.
God is good. Man has a sinful nature and demons tempting him. These people are so hard with scripture they like and literally scoff the scripture that they don't like.
All that talking didn't protect Tod from rare deadly cancer....not the Holy Spirit. God sees everything and the demons are watching waiting for Tod's heart.
Do you have a video about how people new to the Word of God can study their Bible?

I know you asked about a video but this is a very simple book written during the mid 80's by a well know evangelist. Their are many ways to study the bible..topically, a character study, studying entire books and ect. Topical is the easiest as the author points out. For instance lets say I want to know what they the bible says about counsel. I look up every verse where the word counsel appears and study the verse. I might have to read the verse before and after or the entire chapter to really understand what it is saying. Check out the book on amazon and you won't be disappointed.

Thank you!
If your judgment is such that you deem the other person to be less of a person than you, if your judgment is meant to put the other down and to elevate yourself to be better, then YOU will be judged by God to be guilty of the sin of pride and to have made a lesser person of yourself.
Although christians may not always get the message across perfectly, the real thing is that: If you claim to have a relationship with God, you are a child of God. God commands us to Love God, and you Love god by Loving his children (1 John 5:2). Love means that we point out each other's errors because we walk in light, not in darkness. (Mathew 28:18-29, Mark 5:16) If I try to love a brother in Christ but they reject God's word (Isaiah 5:24).
Judging the act and judging the person are 2 different things. It is the difference between guilt and shame. We may condemn a persons actions and find them guilty but we must not condemn their being and shame them. That is God’s to judge. When you ask “what kind of person would do such a thing”, the answer is always the same: a person who understands God’s will imperfectly. Who among us can say we perfectly understand God’s will? But though we may not understand perfectly, we are responsible nevertheless for our actions. Hold people responsible for their actions, do not condemn their imperfect being.
@@GOLFNPSYCH2 Amen
Very good! And true!
this is a good example of whats wrong with the church...and so many people in pain
Well explained.
I like this video especially
Are you reading from the KJV? Have you realized yet that the scripture has changed and now says 'that' rather than 'lest'? The Lord's prayer now says, 'thy will IN earth, rather than on earth?' And when speaking of new wine mixed with old, it is no longer wineskin, but bottles? Oh, and what about the scripture that speaks of the LION that will lay with the lamb, it now says wolf? I am speaking from the same KJV Bible I've had since the 80's, not a newer one. This is known as a work of the "Mandela effect'. There are many other examples, but since we are speaking of the Bible, I'm only listing these few scriptures.....
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it's read like that . Did my bible change or am I like this guy and just misquoted the verse .
You are so right!!! And now there are so many changes I wonder if these pastors are coming out on this? Shalom to you for speaking up!😍
These mean little. It could be serpent and rodent. Bigger fish and smaller fish. Dog and cat.
It means and changes the whole of the lesson at all.
This is why so many people walk away from God.. who knows who has the right to judge. If you have a log in your own eye how can you see to take the log out of another person's eye. The blind is leading the blind.. Jesus said to go out and preach the Good word. Women are to be silent? THE first human that preached the good news was a women. There is none that is good no not one. How do we know all of the sins we commit? Catholics spill out all their sins to a priest. JESUS is the high priest. So go to Jesus when our thoughts are not heard than we worship in vain. Prayer is in darkness .
What did Jesus mean when he said do not Judge? I won't really answer the question but I will take 8 min to show you that in other parts of the bible it in fact does teach that we are to make judgements about people .....did that answer your question? No not really but thanks for trying
Discern the end times . Jesus said at the end the sons of Nineveh would rise up and condemn this nation for they repented at the teachings of Jonah. When a nation makes it law for Homosexuals to marry be on watch for the Sons of God .
Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones
Matthew 7:15-20 is not talking about their fruit as a person and how they live, but what they preach. If they are not preaching the gospel (First Corinthians 15:1-4) and salvation by grace, (Romans 11:6) then they are a false teacher preaching a false gospel of works salvation.
Jesus goes on to say, that many will come before Him on that day telling Him about all their good words, How they cast out demons in His name, and did many wonderful works, in His name. They thought they were saved by how they lived and what they did, but never did the will of the Father. What is the will of the Father? John 6:40 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that all that seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have eternal life, and I will raise Him up on the last day.
First Corinthians 15:1-4 is the gospel. That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures, that He was buried and rose again on the third day, according to the scriptures. When we believe that gospel we are given eternal life through the seal of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit who is our seal unto the day of redemption. Second Timothy 2:19 The Lord knows His sheep because they have His seal of the Holy Spirit in them. John 6:39 He has never lost one.
False teachers preach another gospel of salvation by works and not grace. Romans 11:6, and Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.
False teachers preach a false gospel that if we keep Gods laws and do good works we will be saved by what we do instead of what Jesus has already done. Our salvation is always based on what Jesus has done, not on what we do. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me hath everlasting life. Present tense. All believers have eternal life. John 3:18 We can no longer be condemned because all or our sins have been paid in full forever.
Galatians 1:7-9 Though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you, than that we have preached unto you, let them be accursed. As we said before, so say I again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that which ye have received, let Him be accursed
We can not be saved by how we live and what we do or we would be our own savior and Jesus died in vain. We are saved by what He did for us, not by what we do. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believe on Him who justifieth the ungodly. (all of us ) his faith is counted for righteousness. When we believe the gospel, we are given His righteousness, and He will no more impute sin to our account. Romans 4:6-8.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, what we do or do not do, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it except to believe. Salvation is all grace, not works. We can not add what we do to what Jesus has already done.
AMAZING GRACE, JESUS PAID IT ALL AND WE PAID 0. IT IS FREE. Romans 6:23
fruits is obedience faith is root obedience is the fruit
It depends on what you mean by fruit. Mathew 7:15-20 is talking about the fruit of false teachers who preach a message of grace plus works. Romans 4:4 Shows us God can not be debt to us. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believe on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Since salvation is a free gift from God, we have nothing to boast in. Jesus paid it all and we paid 0. We can only work out of debt, a debt we could never pay. But Jesus, just because He loved us, paid the debt for us. First Corinthians 15:1-4
Since heaven is not a reward for anything we do, and it is a free gift from God, we can only do what we do to bring glory to God. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, and we all sin, but the GIFT of God is eternal life. Eternal life is the gift for believing that Jesus died in our place and took all of our sins upon Him. John 3:18 We can never be condemned again.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it. Romans 11:6 It is all grace, not works.
No one can earn heaven by what we do. We can earn rewards in heaven by how we live after we have received the free gift of eternal life, and we do reap what we sow here, but our salvation is by what Jesus did, not by what we do or do not do. Our works.
So we are saved the minute we trust Jesus as our savior whether we ever produce any fruit at all, but we will be rewarded in heaven for the good works we have done. Never for salvation. That is a free gift we could never do any thing for. We can not add works to grace.
"Don't judge me, don't judge me, let me go to hell." -The World
Where in the Bible is this stated ?? It doesn't
OK now I am more confused . Will research more :)
Sure, fine, but then Christians need to stop saying "stop shoving it down my throat" whenever we (gays) are discussing topics relevant to us in Facebook groups, going about our lives normally.
Stop saying "nobody cares that you're gay!" when a lot of you are interjecting.
If you are preaching because you believe homosexuality is wrong by faith, then you're also "shoving it down our throats" and you also care, a lot. So pick these phrases and stop preaching, or preach away and stop using those phrases.

I just had this moment with my ten yr old nephew ,it felt like Jesus was speaking threw me last night. I'm not church going person but I do believe in God ,jesus and bible! I'm not the perfect person, but in my yrs I have been thru alot and seen alot of where ppl can be successful and where they down fall, my nephew has 2 drug addict parents , now there not the worse ppl but not great choice they make either , my nephews cousin just died , ( my sister and I take care of my nephew and support him on so many levels) so I was sitting car waiting for my 10 yr old nephew to get done visiting with his mom and I happen go in find out if he was staying or not completely his choice since his dad has custody, and he and parents admit they let him smoke pot cuz of who died , well I had couple thoughts run thru my mind, k I been here done that so I turn around in tone of my mother and said to him I understand where u coming from and y ur doing it BUT these are not the good choices we make when we want to be a successful NFL player ,( it was like God was speaking threw me like I'm not judging u but this not road to righteousness or success , I got to biggest look from there parents like what heck did I just do him ) it's like wake up ppl u might be parents but doesn't mean u have tools to be parents but on other hand I been down this road myself and was able to mostly get off this road of self distraction and try be on road with god ,I was able to provide the voice he need to hear threw darkness and he told he didn't care but on that level reading my nephew he heard me and I know it cuz I know there son better then parents and at end of the my saying something and lil time went by for him think about it I said my good byes said I love u !

A false prophet preaches salvation by works and not grace. Romans 11:6 and Ephesians 2:8-9 Unbelievers trust in their works for salvation, and have never received the free gift of salvation by faith alone. They believe they can earn heaven by how they live and what they do.
They tell Jesus about all their good works, how they prophesied in His name, and cast out demons in His name, and did many wonderful works, in his name. And Jesus tells them, depart form me ye that work iniquity, I never knew you. Not I did know you, and now I don't, I never knew you.
Why did Jesus say He never knew them. He said they never did he will of His Father. What is the will of His Father. John :40 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that all that seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
These people thought they could earn heaven by how they lived an what they did. But never trusted Jesus as the only way of salvation by grace.
They were never born again. Romans 8:9 Without the Spirit of God, their is no salvation. How do we get the Spirit? The Gospel, First Corinthians 15:1-4 That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures, that He was buried and rose again on the third day, according to the scriptures.
When we believe that gospel we are sealed by the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in who also AFTER ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise. BORN AGAIN. Born into Gods family. A child of God forever. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit in whom ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
We can not be saved by our works, what we do, but only by Jesus finished work on the cross plus nothing. We can only receive the free gift of eternal life by faith alone in Christ alone. Not by anything we do or do not do. Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith, apart from the deeds of the law. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, and we all sin, but the GIFT of God is eternal life. Ephesians 2:89 For by grace ye are saved, through faith, and that not of your selves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, what we do or do not do, lest any man should boast. We have nothing to boast in because we did nothing for it. It is a free gift from God.
But those who trust in their works, keeping the law and doing good works, are not saved. Only those who have trusted Jesus as the only way of salvation by grace are saved.
Romans 11:6, salvation is all grace, not works. Only those who have been born again by believing the gospel that Jesus paid our sin debt in full, and we can never be condemned again are saved. John 3:18 When we believe the gospel we are given eternal life through the Holy Spirit who seals us unto the day of redemption. John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the children of God, EVEN TO THEM THAT BELEIVE ON HIS NAME.
First John 5:13 These things have I written unto you, that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know ye have eternal life.
So we should judge???
Timofey Marko Yes, if it is righteous. No, if you are being hypocritical. (Matt 7) www.compellingtruth.org/do-not-judge.html
i see, i thought god could communicate to us without having some former inline-skaters explaining.
the moment, the very moment, you hear, "what god means is ..."
take a step back.
what sort of god do you believe in that cannot say ownership of another human, rape of another human, the beating to near-death of another human is wrong?
So if your fruit is how we decern you. You are not telling us why you are reading a scripture incorrectly? Judge not, lest you be judged. This scripture was never in the Bible? You need to talk about the Bible changes!!! Shalom!!!😇
