Discernment
Listen to these words from Matthew 7 - “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
That seems pretty clear. Jesus didn’t mince any words. “Do not judge” means…Do not judge! That assignment belongs to the one who is wiser – the Lord, the righteous judge.
