Do I Bear The Marks?

Do Not Judge By Appearance

Contributed by James Dina on May 29, 2021

Learn to judge men, by the things that are not seen in their nature but seen in their fruits (Matthew 7:20), and also by their graces and spiritual glory. Judge them by their patience, meekness, holiness and uprightness.

(John 7:24) A change in our outward condition causes many people to change their opinions concerning us.
