Seven Signs You are Judging Others

Seven Signs You are Judging Others - “Judge not” is one of the most popular Bible verses in our society, especially among non-Christians. J.D. Greear writes, “It seems to fit in with two of our society’s most basic assumptions—that (1) religion is private and (2) morality is relative. People love “judge not” because it seems to be a handy way of saying, “You can’t tell me I’m wrong.” Begin to make a public assessment on just about any moral issue and you’ll see this verse swiftly pulled out as a deflective weapon. The problem is, Jesus—the one who uttered the words—didn’t share our presuppositions about private religion and relative morality.”
