" JUDGING OTHERS "

Good Morning To You, Welcome and come on in,is all well in your camp? Life is surely interesting and definitely unpredictable. Are you doing a good job at surrounding yourself with good people, those in whom are of like-mind regarding the things of God? This week we will be looking into "JUDGING OTHERS. " OK, let's get started. Our Lord Jesus Christ has been given the authority to judge all the earth. Although his judgment is already working in our lives,there is a future,final judgment when Christ returns and everyone's life is reviewed and evaluated.This will not be confined to unbelievers;Christians too will face a judgment. Their eternal destiny is secure, but Jesus will look at how they handled gifts,opportunities and responsibilities in order to determine their heavenly rewards. At the time of judgment,God will deliver the righteous and condemn the wicked. We should not JUDGE OTHERS' Salvation; that is God's work. Now our Lord warns against judging by appearance alone. When we judge by outward appearance,we may overlook quality individuals who lack the particular physical qualities society currently admires. Appearance doesn't reveal what people are really like or what their true value is fortunately, God judges by faith and character, not appearance. And because only God can see on the inside, only he can accurately judge people. Most people spend hours each week maintaining their outward appearance; they should do even more to develop their inner character. While everyone can see your face, only you and God know what your heart really looks like. What steps are you taking to improve your heart's attitude? Until Next Time... Jim,
