Lesson 3131

(Lesson 3131)(07-28-2020) Matthew 7:1-5
    “ Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.”

    In my opinion, this lesson applies even moreso today than it did when Jesus made the statements in today’s quote. Jesus clearly said that those who judge the sins of others are equally guilty. A sinner is NOT to judge the sins of other sinners.
    Sadly, many of todays church services consist, almost entirely, of pouring out judgment on those who are not in attendance. I wonder how Jesus would react if He were to sit through one of those services? ~
