- Welcome to The Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.
- 00:12
- This is a ministry of striving for eternity. The one unbreakable rule in our culture is you should not judge.
- 00:20
- Have you ever spoken to someone and said something is wrong or someone is doing something wrong and someone will say you shouldn't judge?
- 00:28
- Or maybe they're going to even quote a Bible verse and say judge not, least you be judged. We have a culture that says you should not judge other people.
- 00:39
- Now, we're going to deal with this and we realize that immediately what are they doing when they tell you that you shouldn't judge others?
- 00:48
- Well, if we put our critical thinking hat on, we recognize they are judging us. So they obviously think it's okay to judge as long as they're the ones doing it.
- 00:59
- And that's the first thing you want to point out to people. When someone says you shouldn't judge other people, my response typically is then why are you judging me?
- 01:08
- I usually have to explain it because they are so trained to think that they cannot be judging others by giving in to the cultural norm.
- 01:20
- And yet the reality is they judge without even recognizing it. So the first thing
- 01:25
- I want to do is point out to them what it means to judge other people. The fact is that when they make a judgment that I'm wrong for judging others, that's their judgment.
- 01:37
- And it needs to be pointed out that they are judging. And if they think it's wrong to judge, then they should stop it.
- 01:43
- I don't believe it's wrong to judge other people. The question I always have is what's the standard that you use to judge others?
- 01:50
- That's the issue. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry. For more content or to request a speaker or seminar to your church, go to strivingforeternity .org.
