(Wk3) compaRED / Judging
Matthew 7:1-5... “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. 3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Mat Balgaard (Exec Pastor) is going to TEAR IT UP this weekend - here's a 'sneak peak' at some of what he's BRINGIN'!!!!
When making Judgments - Jesus said...
“Do unto others as you would have them do to you”
When Judging others …
Make COMPASSIONATE Judgments rather than being HARSHLY judgeMENTAL!
When Judging others …
Don’t be a 'Plank-Eye' who’s 'Speck-Sensitive!'
The 'EYES' God has given YOU are to be used to reflect INWARD as much as they are to be used to judge those OUTWARD!
EXAMINE the image you see in mirror first before you decide to JUDGE those outside its view!
The first steps of a WISE Judge …
Truth - Humility - Mercy - Compassion - Gentleness - SELF-INSPECTION!
Before you JUDGE someone else - remember what JESUS said...
"In the same way you judge others - you will be judged!"
Don't MISS this week at COC!!
