POPULARITY
In Matthew 7, we see Jesus address the destructive nature of judging others, a behavior that can be as damaging as cancer to relationships. In this passage, Jesus calls His followers to avoid harsh, hasty, and hypocritical judgments. Instead, He urges us to prioritize addressing our own sins before helping others with theirs. The tendency to be critical and judgmental is deeply rooted in human nature. Jesus warns against this toxic behavior, which can lead to broken marriages and divided churches. Jesus' teaching in Matthew 7:1-5 emphasizes the importance of self-reflection, humility, honesty and mercy. He uses the metaphor of a log in one's eye to illustrate the absurdity of judging others while ignoring one's own faults. This teaching is not a prohibition against discernment or addressing sin, but a call to avoid a fault-finding spirit. Jesus Himself called out sin, but He did so with the intent of bringing people to repentance and salvation, not condemnation. The passage also highlights the need for discernment in sharing the gospel. Jesus advises against casting pearls before swine, meaning we should be wise in how we share the message of the kingdom and how much time and energy we invest on behalf of those who show no interest. This requires both elements of truth and grace, recognizing that not everyone will be receptive to the gospel. Sinclair Ferguson called this principle taught here “The wisdom of appropriate activity” Ultimately, Jesus calls us to love one another as He has loved us. By marveling at God's grace and mercy towards us, we can counter a critical spirit and cultivate a heart of compassion towards others.

In this week's sermon we learn we are not to judge others. Pastor Jim shares two types of judging Jesus could be talking about here. We learn who is allowed to judge and who is not allowed to judge and were given some examples of this. We were then given two warnings for when we are supposed to judge others. Lastly, we were given an assignment if we have judged others unfairly or if we need to speak the truth in love to someone around us.

Judging others is natural for many of us, and somewhat inescapable. We are constantly making discerning judgments about things, and even people. So, when Jesus says “Judge not” – does he mean that we are to stop all these things? If not, what does he mean, and how are we to apply it? Today, we encounter one of the most misunderstood passages in the New Testament. Nevertheless, it has much wisdom for us. Let us listen well to our Lord!

Pastor John Mars Sermon Called "Sabbath - Look Within"
Pastor John Mars Sermon Called "Sabbath - Look Within"
Jesus speaks on judgment and judgmentalism in one of the most quoted scriptures yet so often misunderstood.
Whenever there is conflict, it is critical to consider how you may be contributing to the problem, either directly or indirectly. Before focusing on what others have done wrong, it is wise to reflect on Matthew 7:1-6, and carefully examine the way you have been thinking, speaking and acting.
Do not judge or you will be judged.
Jesus challenges us to use our critical faculties, in accord with Scripture, to determine when to judge or not to judge.

While Jesus' followers are commanded to not be condemning and judgmental, we must still exercise wise judgment when necessary. In this sermon, more than ten ways are communicated on how we are NOT to do this.
