     | 11,063 views

    The Word cautions Christians against a judgemental attitude. When we imagine that we are judging others--even those we identify as "wicked sinners," we expose ourselves to the very judgements we pronounce.

    “You have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things.” [1] “We know” is an expression used ...read more

    Strangely enough, this four-letter word carries a lot of weight in every situation through many generations. What love may mean to you may not mean the same as I see it but everybody wants to know what love is.
