    How To Judge Not

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Apr 27, 2013
     | 4,500 views

    Don't judge me! Who are you to judge me? Popular ideas in today's culture need biblical guidance. Let's look a bit at what this is all about and how God wants us to understand and act regarding judging others.

    Matthew 7 Jesus' words: do not judge, are perhaps the most popular words of our culture today. How do you judge not? Particularly, how do you judge not as Jesus taught us?

    In a day when Satan and his allies seem to be fully in charge of society and government, it is comforting to learn that this does not surprise God! He will reward those who follow Him, deal with His enemies and put a hedge of protection around His saints.

    The Lord Surrounds His People Psalm 125 4th of July Message July 4, 2010 OPEN • One need only look around him today to know that America is in economic, political and moral trouble! • We are plagued with financial breakdown, immigration struggles, and moral depravity. • Were we to bring back one ...read more

    We invited the local Chief of Police to speak to our congregation and to our youth. After his talk, this is the short message we gave to close the service.

And a reporter caught up to her to ask some questions. What she said was downright scary. She said that what we need is a revolution in order to ...read more
