Luke 22
Only Jesus is the judge. One of the most prominent verses on whether we are to judge or not is in Matthew:
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Matthew 7:1-2
The flip side of whether to judge or not is love. How can we judge if we love:
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You love me despite my sin. You love and forgive me so I am to love and forgive others. I am not to judge...yet I do. Thank You that You love me anyway Jesus but please forgive me for judging others. Please forgive me and help me turn from my sin towards You. Help me be the man You intend for me. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength.
But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him. v51
