Doesnt Jesus say not to judge people, and that only he can judge. I'm a little confused. Does anyone know what he says about judging another? I read someone say that Jesus once went to a town or to someone and pleaded with them not to judge others? Is this true? Thank you- Re: Jesus says not to judge? oopsadaisy

MoreThis is a reply to # 344,250You're right that Jesus said not to judge - "Judge not lest ye be judged" - but he did not also say that only he could judge. He told us to go beyond judgement, and see everyone as a child of God.

MoreThis is a reply to # 344,252I also wonder this. Why would god judge his own beautiful creation? Did god made us sinners so that he could judge everybody? It sounds more like its the people who will judge you if you sin, not god. And why, out of all of gods children, would he only choose the few people who believed in the bible to come meet him in heaven? Don't you realize that means about 80% or more the people on Earth are going to hell then. Most dont even have a choice because they would never get a chance to learn about the bible? It all sounds very illogical.

This is a reply to # 344,257It is not believeing in the bible that will get you to heaven. You must believe and accept that jesus is lord and savior and that he sacrificed himself to save us all. Jesus says not to judge, only to love one another unconditionally. God loves us all unconditionally and will forgive us any sin as long as we ask for forgiveness, which is repenting. No one is perfect, God is the one who made us imperfect and it is by walking with the lord that we begin to understand how to rise above our fleshly human nature.- Re: Jesus says not to judge? oopsadaisy

I am inclined to disagree with you. We ARE perfect in God's eyes. God knows no imperfection.- Re: Jesus says not to judge? melvel

This is a reply to # 344,267Yes, we are perfect in God's eyes because he loves us unconditionally and he knows our hearts, we are his children. But we are not perfect. God made each and every one of us. He created us with certain personality traits, such as selfishness, jealousy, tempers as he also endowed us with kindness, compassion, generosity. He gave us each gifts such as the ability to write, create art, teach, listen and speak. There is a reason for everything and God gave us certain traits for certain reasons so that we may look to him to overcome what burdens us. It is often the imperfections and sin that will bring people to him. When you are at your lowest point is when you will look up. So in a way the imperfections he gave us is part of his perfect plan. But, it is only through him you will be able to overcome.- Re: Jesus says not to judge? 2dreem

This is a reply to # 344,269Different people work in different ways and are able to find themselves in different ways. The only way I got over my 'burdens' was to look inside myself, to the god within so to speak. I think that others are able to overcome their hardships by connecting with the god outside of themselves, but both are ways that we connect with a divine spirit to help us realize that there is so much more than our physical bodies and life on earth. I see god in all things, particularly in plants, and by being close to myself and nature I feel close to god. We are each very unique and we all have our own unique ways of connecting with god. I don't believe that there is just one way for anything. I don't believe that god is judgemental, I think he just wants us to love ourselves as much as he does. I think simply asking ourselves for forgiveness is also asking god's forgiveness, because I believe we are a part of god, we are his creation and what you create is a part of you. If we are able to accept ourselves for who we are, such as being a homosexual, then I'm inclined to believe god will too. What do you think?

This is a reply to # 344,273Congratulations and God bless you, 2dreem. All of my life, I have noticed that many unbelievers put to shame those who embrace the institutions, texts and rules of man's religions. God is the origin of natural man. Since I am a Christian (for 20 years) that has been "around the block", so to speak, and suffered much adversity (suicidal Depression for 51 years), I can show you another side of God that few will allow themselves to see because they confine God to a book.
The earthly parents of the human race (Adam and Eve) did not eat of the tree of good and evil, they ate of the tree of the KNOWLEDGE of good and evil (the tree of CONSCIENCE). We all inherited the ability to develop a conscience by understanding, as we grow up, the difference between right and wrong (good and evil). That is why we can be held accountable for our deeds. Bible scripture tells us that we will have to BE ABLE to stand before God with a CLEAR conscience.
If each person is able to stand before God and give an "honest to goodness" just reason why they did what they did, as long as they ALSO accepted The Son (Jesus) of God's act of purifying their soul, they will be given entrance into heaven. Jesus purified our souls ONLY, but left God's spirit (Holy Spirit)to teach us the proper ways to love and care for our fellow human being (according to one's own conscience).
Adam and Eve did not commit "ORIGINAL" sin (there is no such thing), they were the first members of the human race to commit sin, what is called "the flesh" (sin spirit of humanity) chose the word "original" to suggest that "original sin" is still in effect and must be accounted for (one of satan's lies). Adam and Eve committed INITIAL sin. We are INITIALLY accountable to CONSCIENCE (what you call the god within) and ULTIMATELY accountable to God. Well done 2dreem.
I BELIEVE (my opinion) that all of the people who never had a decent opportunity to discover the truth of God or His rules of perfection (Ten Commandments, if you want to be perfect, follow them 100% completely, you will find that you are a complete failure and that you need JESUS) will recieve a final chance to recieve God's grace (ONLY them) and also answer for their conscience and how they treated others with LOVE.

If I may...Are you talking about God of the Holy Bible???? Bc if you are then NO He will not accept you as a homosexual, even if you accept yourself as one. I know it may hurt, but God says homosexuality, two men having sex/romance with each other and two women having sex/romance with each other is an abomination. He mentions it time and again. One glaring example of Him being completely against it is, of course, when He destroyed the cities Sodom and Gomorrha where those activites were taking place.

This is a reply to # 344,289I have a different idea of god then many people, which they interpreted from the bible. Wanted to point out one thing though, the bible was not written by god, it was written by man, it's man's interpretation of god, therefore it really is not god's words but god's supposed words coming from men. The only way we would know if it's truly god's words would be for HIM to stand before us and speak to us. So it's right to say you have faith in the bible being god's word but it's not right to say it is god's word. Anyways, I don't have a narrow view of god, I think he comes to us in many ways and that's why there are so many religions, they are all different but they all allow us to connect with our higher power. I am aware that many christens believe that believing in what the bible says and Jesus as the son of god are the only way, but I feel that that is very illogical. Why would god create so many beautiful beings that are a part of him, only to send most of them to hell because they didn't happen to come across this one view of god and accept it. I don't view god as a thing that will judge us and condemn us if we do any wrong, tell us we have to ask forgiveness for any and all mistakes we make. I know that for a lot of people religion and the bible is very helpful and comforting and feels like the truth but it doesn't to me. So what can I do, hate myself or search for what I feel is the truth. I feel it's the truth that if we were to accept ourselves for who we are, even if we are a homosexual, than god will to. That's just how I feel and what I believe and it has nothing to do with the christian view of god. But I'm not saying there is anything wrong with being a christian or believing in everything the bible says, it's just not something that I believe. I believe in the more spiritual idea of god, that we are a part of god and we have our own higher self that is connected to god. This is not most people's belief and so it will not make much sense to most people, but it makes sense to me.

This is a reply to # 344,250If Jesus said you should not judge others, then why will there be a Judgement Day when God judges all of us, and sends us to Heaven or Hell???
You seem to miss the point...Jesus said "Don't judge others, lest you shall be judged". So, that doesn't mean not to judge others; it means IF you do you will be judged by the same measure.
There are plenty of bible study books at Christian bookstores, or even on the internet. You should get one on the topic you are interested in, bc getting information from someone who is ignorant as you concerning the bible will only confuse you more. It's like the blind leading the blind.

This is a reply to # 344,288Jesus did NOT say...Don't judge others, BECAUSE AFTER I COME BACK, you will recieve judgement (in the same fashion). This is very important because, in reading the bible, society, especially Christianity, we are in the habit of DRAWING CONCLUSIONS (severely misleading). I choose to let every day be judgement day because I answer to my conscience (God speaks to me through my conscience and heart/mind). Other people's devotion might allow them to choose to ignore judgement until The Lord comes back (not biblical, we draw conclusions to suit our self-serving bias).
The only correct interpretation of the bible is based on our understanding of it's consistency, God is integral.

This is a reply to # 344,292It's funny that when some people say they don't judge others bc God will judge them, they look over the fact that we all judge others each and every day. It's a natural response to what we see in our environment. For instance, if I see a bum on the street bumming people for money, I make a judgement about him. I think to myself, that lazy bum; he needs to get a job! Or...I think, poor thing, he probably hit on hard times and couldn't find his way back up so now he's a person on skid row who only option for getting money is to beg.
We judge others, we judge situations, etc. Humans make judgements bc without making them we get into situations that are not good for us. Judging means making an analysis of the person or situation that may help us to go in the right direction in our life's journeys.
Matthew 7:1
1"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Jesus said, "Don't judge others, lest ye shall be judged by the same manner". Oh, we will judge others, but the thing is be careful WHO you judge bc others will surely judge you by the same manner. If you judge someone hair, others will judge yours. I think it may have something to do with...what you give out to the universe, it comes back around to you.

This is a reply to # 344,295It's not that we shouldn't judge others...though really we shouldn't. It's that the only judgment that matters is Gods. That's the truth. No matter who it is who judges me, God's is the only one that matters. You can judge all you want, but you are no where near righteous enough to know how God is going to judge.
