Judgement
Notes
Transcript
Therefore, every one of you, who judges is without excuse. For when you judge another, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, do the same things. 2 Now we know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is based on the truth. 3 Do you think—anyone of you who judges those who do such things yet do the same—that you will escape God’s judgment? 4 Or do you despise the riches of his kindness, restraint, and patience, not recognizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance? 5 Because of your hardened and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed.
Are You The Judge
Are You The Judge
We often spend time in our lives trying to point out the flaws of everyone else and criticizing to make us look good. We are looking at God’s word to see just how good it makes us look in God’s eyes when we do it.
let’s look back at the passage and reread 1-3 and see what God tells us about being the judge of other peoples lives.
Christian Standard Bible Chapter 2
2 Therefore, every one of you who judges is without excuse. For when you judge another, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, do the same things. 2 Now we know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is based on the truth. 3 Do you think—anyone of you who judges those who do such things yet do the same—that you will escape God’s judgment?
We see here that It says that when you judge you are condemning yourself because you have done the say things. I know some of you are thinking no I haven’t I'm not nearly as bad as what so and so does.
Raise your hand if you have ever done some of these things.
lied to someone
called someone a name
gossip behind someones back
hit someone
used a swear word.
these are just basic things that we can look at we can start diving deeper if you really what to look at it. I want you to notice the people with their hands up. Its Everyone.
All your doing is asking for Gods wrath to come to you as we see that you may be able to lie to everyone that you do not do it but we see that God judges on the truth.

Or do you despise the riches of his kindness, restraint, and patience, not recognizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance? Because of your hardened and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed.
They continue by writing and saying that if you don't think you are the judge then you must despise God but not recognizing the type of love he is showing you.
He goes on and says you rather put your walls up which you think is keeping you safe but as you see when you put your walls up and trying to keep yourself safe instead of trusting God all you are doing is storing up Gods Wrath on yourself.
It Is time to reflect on God and stop nit picking at each other and start dropping our walls and learning to love them. God is calling and want you to come.
Loving Everyone, Coming To God

Rather then spend so much time trying to make yourself look good or feel good. Now is the time to look to God and serve alone side the people that have the same faith that are going through the same things to help you through those things .
God does not want to hear us judge each other when we are guilty. He doesn't want to see our walls up. Throughout the bible he says constantly that he puts people in our lives to help us go through the problems that we face to help lift us up when we need it,
Now is the time to ask have I been lifting people up or have I been the one that is putting people down.
As go through our invitation now is the time to start think and going to God to fix the way we have been acting.
