That's very true about judgement and the truth of the matter is we find ourselves, actually, I find myself doing it more than I ought to. I was really challenged by the word in romans today and I started praying to God about it and realized that some of the judging came out of bitterness and have now started praying for healing.
What is causing your judgemental attitude? Pride, yu want to always be better? Inferiority? You feel inferior to everybody so now yu want to pull them down too? As for redirecting someone, I think what wex has suggested is cool but sometimes we have to then judge in love so that you can speak to that person straight up. We might end up leaving our friends to do beans coz we dnt wanna judge them. How do you tell a friend wu knows everything that they are messing up? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 11, 2011 5:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Daily Devotional 'Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.'Romans 14:1 The greater part of Romans 14 talks about judgement, us the super Christians despising the weak Christians. As much as we might talk about this that its bad, we do it everyday and half the time uncounciously. When u just look at wat someone is wearing and say in ur heart zvinoita here kuchurch izvo, when u meet someone in an uncommon place for believers u hide but say in ur heart arikudei kuno uyo. When u see someone drinking his coke during a daniel's fast and u say dziri pafast here idzi the list of examples is endless. The bible is very clear about this. Whether someone has genuinely broken God's law, it is not ur duty to condemn them, if fact the word says there is therefore no condemnation to them who r in Christ. If Jesus himself forgives what of u, afterall its not even ur law. I believe our responsibility wen we see someone that has fallen is to help them reconcile with the creator. Again this is difficult coz u cannot just walk up to someone and say repent, i know u r a thief, they will probably react negatively. Ur best bet would be just affirming scripture. Do not identify wat they did unless they tell u or unless u r very close. Rather read a scripture that is liked to that issue and I am sure if it is in good faith, the holy spirit will convict them to repent. What do u guys think about this judgement issue? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tribewithavibe" group.
