Judging others is a sin, but judging yourself is even more of a sin. Why? Because when you judge others, you condemn yourself. Jesus says in Matthew 7:7, "Don't judge others with the same measure that you judge, you too will be judged."

00:00:00 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17 Thanks.
00:00:19 Jesus said,
00:00:20 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30 Somebody who says, I didn't know there was a God.
00:00:32 I didn't know there was a standard.
00:00:33 If they really believed that,
00:00:34 they would live consistently with that,
00:00:36 and that would be a life that is absent of judgment.
00:00:39 That's what the apostle's saying.
00:00:41 He's saying, when you judge others, you condemn yourself.
00:00:44 Why?
00:00:44 Because judging, judgmentalism is a sin.
00:00:47 It's a condemnable sin.
00:00:49 It's a sin that's worth, that's not what he's saying.
00:00:53 Because the Bible teaches that we're called to make judgment.
00:00:55 The righteous man makes judgments about all things.
00:00:58 The spiritual man judges all things, yet he himself is subject to no man's judgment.
00:01:03 We make judgments all the time.
00:01:04 You might be thinking about, well, wait a second, the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew chapter 7.
00:01:08 Jesus says, don't judge others with the same measure that you judge, you too will be judged.
00:01:13 All that saying is not, hey, it's always wrong to judge.
00:01:16 All that saying is, as you judge, live up to the judgments you make.
00:01:21 Know that as you judge, with the very same measure that you judge others, you too will be judged.
00:01:28 And so don't go and try to take a speck
00:01:31 out of your neighbor's eye, your brother's eye,
00:01:33 when you've got a two by four sticking out of yours.
00:01:36 And we take that and we say, don't judge.
00:01:39 What do you think God would say?
00:01:42 We know what God says.
00:01:44 With a whole biblical theology,
00:01:45 he would say, take that two by four out of your eye
00:01:48 and go and remove the speck in your brother's also.
00:01:52 Both, both.
00:01:53 he's he's he's listing for his priorities he's not saying don't ever correct your brother
00:02:00 well we know that doesn't line up with scripture and so we make judgments even matthew chapter 7
00:02:06 don't judge the same measure you judge others you too will be judged the very next verse that's
00:02:11 one through five verses one through five matthew chapter seven the very next verse is don't cast
00:02:16 your pearls before swine well how do you obey that i mean first jesus is saying that some people
00:02:23 are swine let's just soak that in for a moment and then number two he's saying you need to know
00:02:29 who those people are which requires you to do what make a judgment that's right that's right
00:02:36 so so the modern american evangelical church is lying they're lying we do make judgments we make
00:02:45 judgments humbly we don't want to give in to the sin of judgmentalism that is self-righteous that
00:02:52 denies our own sin, our own need for the mercy and grace of God. But we also don't want to throw
00:02:58 the baby out with the bathwater and basically say that we can't ever correct anyone for anything.
00:03:04 That's insanity. And so we do judge rightfully, but these people, they're judging wrongfully.
00:03:12 And this is what Paul's saying in the very first verse. He's saying, you don't have an excuse.
00:03:16 Which excuse? The one you love to use the most. The one that says you're ignorant and therefore
00:03:21 innocence your ignorance makes you innocent you didn't know there was a god you didn't know there 0.93
00:03:26 was a universal standard of morality and so because you didn't know these things you can't 0.94
00:03:30 be held morally responsible for living in that way but here was your tell here's what you done
00:03:37 messed up aaron the problem is the problem is that you judge others and what does he say and
00:03:45 you practice the very same thing that you do meaning what the big deal is hypocrisy no that
00:03:50 That's not the big point of this text.
00:03:52 When he says you practice the very same thing
00:03:54 that you judge others for,
00:03:55 what he's saying is this.
00:03:56 You do know by your judging of others
00:04:00 based on how they live their lives, 0.97
00:04:02 you betray your excuse of ignorance.
00:04:05 You are admitting that you believe in morality.
00:04:09 And here's the key.
00:04:11 You can't even live up to your own standard of morality.
00:04:16 So you're judging others, right?
00:04:18 And what are you using to do that?
00:04:20 Some kind of standard.
00:04:22 You're using some standard for right and wrong,
00:04:25 some standard for righteousness,
00:04:26 some standard for morality.
00:04:28 And when people don't live up to your standard for morality,
00:04:31 you judge them, which proves what?
00:04:33 You have a standard.
00:04:34 You believe that there is actually such a thing
00:04:37 as right and wrong,
00:04:37 and you do the very same things yourself.
00:04:42 Meaning what?
00:04:43 you can't even live up to your own skewed, false, unequal weights and measurement system of
00:04:51 morality. What on earth would make you think that you can stand before God?
