Lets talk a minute about this term "judging" that has been slung all over the place for years and years as a way to throw off good common sense and to justify immoral behavior.
A few quotes:
Dont "judge" me if I want to:
look at porn
have extramarital sex
do drugs
speak profanely
participate in homosexual activity
jump off a bridge
These are all I can think of right now, Im sure you can think of others. Its interesting to me that the person "doing" the behavior uses the term judging when their friends, family, or someone in society suggests that what they are doing is immoral and harmful.
Think for a minute and look at that list. If someone came up to you and said, "man, i dont think its in your best interest to jump off that bridge" would yall call that "judging" or "advising"? Lets rephrase, "man, I dont think its in your best interest to have do drugs"...now that MUST be "judging", right? I can hear it now, DONT JUDGE ME. translated, that means, I WANT TO DO MYSELF IN, SO LEAVE ME ALONE.
before you toss out the "judging" card, take just 10 seconds to think about what was said, it may be helpful and said out of love. we as humans do not judge, there is only one judge..God Himself. We only can witness and speak what the Bible says. when there is a conflict between behavior and the Bible, we are expected to call on that.
