ANSWER THE MISUNDERSTANDING ABOUT JUDGING: Judging is an important part of our calling in Christ. Most people dont understand why we need it and must teach it. And many abuse it. riends, you must keep studying. Judging is biblical and necessary. Jesus didnt say that you would never judge to pull the splinter from your brothers eye, but He alluded to the need of self judging before doing it. John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. There is so much to think about in these things. Please always, we should take it very slow, because there is so much context througout the Bible, and we need it all. Judgment has to do with decision making. Never did Jesus say that judgment was words. We are led falsely to believe that though, and thus is fairly said to be because of the lack of knowledge.. king Solomon had a dream, and in that dream he asked God for wisdom to rightly judge over Gods people. In the dream God granted His request. We know that Solomon was asleep, therefore it wasnt from his own studies that caused him to wake up full of wisdom. He received it in rest, not in works. When he awoke in didnt cast it off as just some random dream, but rather showed God that he believed in an act of faith when he sacrifice a thousand sacrifices that very day relentlessly. The first act of judgment was then presented to him. Two women were arguing over a baby. One said it was her baby, and the other claimed the baby as her own. They accused one another of lying. Solomon in his new gift of wisdom said, bring me here a sword! And he raised the sword to divide the child in half. Then the woman who was the mother cried out for him to stop! Then he knew she was the real mother and they handed her the child. That is performing judgment. With God all things are possible. Find balance in Jesus, and through Jesus, and in the Name of Christ Jesus, amen. Solomon was under the law, but his judgment was good sound judgment because his gift was from God. Judge not doesnt mean resist the law. The law (Torah) wasnt ever destroyed, neither did Jesus come to destroy it, as we have all read, He came to fulfill it. What was destroyed in the manner of the phrase is the SYSTEM of how the law would be kept. Now it is written in our hearts and minds. In the way you judge, it will be measured back to you. /// Yes, thats right, and all things work together for the good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose. His judgments for us become chastisement. But to those that hate their neighbor or their brother the judgment is severe, as they spiral into the downward slippery slope of dsrkness, meaning the scales of blindness thicken, like thick skin over their eyes and they may become doomed to stumble, not knowing where they are going, and too much judgment for them to break free from it. Only in Gods mercy may some recover. But we all have judged and we all will will be judged, but us who love the Lord and the brethren, to our strength spiritual maturity, and fruit bearing. But to those without, there is utter loss.
