So when you judge someone else, you don’t have any excuse. When you judge another person, you’re judging yourself, because you do the same things you blame others for doing.
“If you don’t judge other people, then you won’t be judged yourself. If you don’t condemn others, then you won’t be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
My brothers and sisters, don’t say bad things about one another. Anyone who says something bad about a brother or sister is saying it about the law, and anyone who judges another believer is judging the law. When you judge the law, you’re not keeping it, you’re acting as if you were its judge.
“His master replied, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you worthless slave! So you knew that I’m a hard man? You knew that I take out what I didn’t put in and that I harvest what I didn’t plant?
So don’t judge anything before the appointed time. Wait until the Lord returns, and he will bring what’s now hidden in the dark out into the light. He’ll show the real reasons why people do what they do. At that time God will give each person the praise they deserve.
