Real Truth in Context

God expects His people to judge. Christians have a responsibility to be proactive in society and address issues, whenever possible, before harm takes place. One of the most unloving things we can do as Christians is to stand by passively while people are heading for destruction. What if you’re watching someone drown, you have a life preserver in your hands, but you refuse to throw it because “you don’t want to hurt their feelings or butt into their business”? How unloving would that be?

However, here is what the Scriptures teach us: we must judge sin in love. First, we’re to judge what the Bible calls a sin. We’re not commanded to judge preferences, styles, or traditions. Most people get turned off from church, not because of its stances on sin but because most of the energy is spent on judging and fighting over styles of music, dress codes, and traditions. Second, we must be motivated by love. If our motivation is anything other than love, then we need to keep our mouths shut.

Hope these help you understand, pray and ask God to show you the truth!

Again, my original complain post was to fellow Christians. The reply post brought up judgement, which is highly misunderstood by Christians and unbelievers… they always use Matthew 7 as a weapon. They don’t even believe the Bible, but use the Bible as a weapon or of context. It’s bizarre to say the least.
