Romans 2:1
You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.

If not for salvation, there is not one of us who could say we would not be out in the world committing adultery, fornicating, stealing, murdering, etc. But for the grace of God, any one of us could be the kind of sinner we speak out against. A sinner is going to sin. It is his nature. Telling him to quit sinning (whatever heinous sin it might be in our eyes) is just as effective as telling a fish to quit swimming and come out on land and live as a human. It is against the fish's nature, he cannot do it. A sinner is going to sin, he cannot help it. He needs the power of the Spirit in his life to gain control over that nature, to put it aside and live for God. Instead of focusing on the sin, we should be showing sinners the love of God and sharing the gospel. Only God can change them. If we focus on the sin, it will divide our efforts, for there are many and varied sins to speak out against. But if we focus on the gospel, that one thing will deal with all the many sins that are out there. It's just like those who train to spot counterfeit currency. If they tried to memorize all the fakes out there, it would take much longer, and eventually they would come across one never before seen that would slip through. Instead, they memorize authentic bills, so that when they find a fake it sticks out like a sore thumb. We need to quit focusing on the many "counterfeit" issues out there and focus on the authentic issue -- the gospel. By bring people to Christ the sin problems will begin to lessen in society.

When I stand in judgement of someone else's actions, I open myself up for God's judgement, which is based on the truth of not just my actions, but also my motives.

Mary T. from Houston, TX said:
We hear about this sin more often than any other, but as we observe the world around us we know that this is a true statement. So many are judged and judge others even though scripture tells us not to judge. God is the only one whom can judge any and all of us for he knows our hearts and he knows our repentance. If he can forgive us what right does anyone have to judge us.

Many times I see people doing things that are disgusting. I think to myself how could they do that,knowing God knows all. Then I realize those are things that I have done. It looks different seeing others doing them. When we compare ourselves to God,instead of comparing ourselves to others, we see how disgusting we have been. God is so good to us,forgiving us of all our sins. We all know what would happen if He didn't. Thank you Father.

Linda G. from Ocala, FL said:
This is a good verse to remember. We should not judge other people not matter what we think of them for this verse says we are condemning ourselves. God is the only person that has the right to judge anyone.

Pastor John Haggie told a story that one day he was talking to some young people about coming to Church. They told him: "they don't like going because there are too many hypocrites that go to church". He replied: "I'm glad you noticed! I invite you all to come this Sunday and there is are empty seats right up front - because we always have room for more".
