01:13

This is a ministry of striving for eternity. You should not judge other people.

01:18

That is the claim that our culture loves to make. And they'll even quote Matthew 7, verse 1.

01:24

And Matthew 7, verse 1 says, Judge not that you be not judged.

01:31

And that is correct. That is what that verse says. Except they don't continue reading. Never read just a

01:37

Bible verse. Keep reading to get the context. Judge not that you be not judged, for with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged.

01:48

And with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

01:53

Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, but do not see the log in your own eye?

02:01

The whole issue that you see Jesus raising here is not that we should not judge other people.

02:08

He's actually going on in verses 2 and 3 to explain the standard of judgment.

02:13

That would make absolutely no sense if he's telling us that we shouldn't judge others ever.

02:19

No, he's raising the issue that when we judge others, it is the question of the standard.

02:25

You will never find a Bible verse anywhere that says we should not judge other people other than by the standard that we judge.

02:33

It's always an issue of the standard of judgment. So judge not that you be not judged is referring to the

02:40

Pharisees that were judging the lost sinners and judging them by a standard that they don't hold themselves to.

02:47

And Jesus is saying, by the standard you judge others, that's the standard you judge yourself. This podcast is part of the
