Matthew 7:1-5

Listen to Matthew 7:1-5
1 “Do not judge others, and you will not be judged.
2 For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.
3 “And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own?
4 How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log in your own eye?
5 Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye.

Judge Yourself Part 2
Judge Yourself Part 2
Jeff Johnson

The Lord said, “Judge not, lest you be judged.” It’s become one of the most misused and misunderstood statements ever uttered by Jesus. You’ll hear that phrase often invoked to excuse all sorts of bad behavior. But is that an accurate usage of the Lord’s words?  Is Jesus saying, we’re to refrain from exercising judgement and discernment?  We’ve come to the seventh chapter of Matthew here today on Sound Doctrine- where Jesus takes on the subject of judging others and the right and wrong way of going about it.  

Judge Yourself Part 1
Judge Yourself Part 1
Jeff Johnson

Today on Sound Doctrine we'll be going over what may be one of the most misunderstood sections of the Sermon on the Mount. How many times have we heard someone say, “Judge not!”  It’s almost always quoted out of context, and is often used to condemn anyone who chooses to make judgements based on the teachings and standards of the Bible. Pastor Jeff Johnson will help us arrive at a better understanding of what Jesus is really communicating to us here in part one of, “Judge Yourself.”
