Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!
Judging, Our Responsibility
Brothers and Sisters it has been our Responsibility since the first twelve Apostles started ministering The Word that we should Judge. But there are too many who stand upon the Half Truth of Not Judging anyone for anything in which has brought The Church into Sin.
Too many Stand on this one verse and go no further…
Matthew 7:1 KJV
“Judge not, that ye be not judged."
If you Stand on this one verse then you Walk in a Lie, a Manipulation of Satan, the craftiness of Men. The rest of the teaching of the above verse is as follows…
Matthew 7:1-5 KJV
"1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye."
Jesus was Teaching that before Judgment can be done, that one must first Examine one’s self that the Judgment does not find oneself guilty of the same sin as we are Judging others in, verse five we find this answer to verse one. But this is not the only place that we find that we are to Judge.
One of the problems that many get confused with, is the Judgment is not the Final Judgment, they, as well as us, have only one person whom has The Final Judgment and that is Jesus. Not one of us on earth can Condemn any person to Hell or The Lake Of Fire for Eternity. But Understand this, we are to Condemn Sin Among Us!
We are Not To Judge according to Appearance, but in All Righteousness and that being weighed by The Word and The Holy Spirit. This means that if a person comes in with ragged clothes, has no job, homeless that Judgment cannot take place, but it is the Heart, the Walk, The Sin and Confessing Jesus being Savior and Lord is what we Judge.
If we were Not To Judge, then there would be no need for Reproof, Rebuke, Excommunications, but yet in all of these things we are called to do!
2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV
“16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works."
1 Timothy 5:20 KJV
Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear."
Definition of Reproof and Rebuke
Dictionary Reproof: an expression of blame or disapproval.
Dictionary Rebuke: express sharp disapproval or criticism of (someone) because of their behavior or actions.
Bible Definition Reproof: a proof, that by which a thing is proved or tested, by conviction.
Bible Definition Rebuke: to convict, refute, confute; generally with a suggestion of shame of the person convicted;
by conviction to bring to the light, to expose; to find fault with, correct; by word; to reprehend severely, chide, admonish, reprove; to call to account, show one his fault, demand an explanation; by deed; to chasten, to punish.
This Teaching, this Notion, that we are Not To Judge has Condemned The Church TO JUDGMENT by Our Lord Jesus for Not Walking in His Word and By The Holy Spirit. This has also brought many Not to go to a church because we do not Live By The Word, but by Our Own Convictions that are NOT of Jesus, but of Satan and Man.
We are to Judge All Things that come into Our Presence if they be of Jesus or not, for it is by Jesus Word and The Holy Spirit that is made and not by Our Flesh! But, and again I say BUT, let Our Judgment be sure, pure and without partiality, fully In and By The Word, Holy Spirit and Godly Men.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
Acts 17:10-11 KJV
"10 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming [thither] went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so."
One of the reasons that Judgment is Not Within You, is because you do NOT Read The Word, The Bible, but you set Your Lives upon what Men, Women and Society has said is correct! There are many among you that have Added or Taken Away or Disregarded certain Scriptures. There are many among you that have found those who would agree with you that Judgment only belongs to Jesus, that we are not to Stand, and those who think we are to be Complacent and Tolerant to Sin!!!
2 Timothy 4:3 KJV
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;"
Do you not understand that we are to be Like God, that we are to Walk and Talk as God on this earth…
Luke 11:2 KJV
“And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth."
Many of you quote the above Scripture, but do you really know what it means? It means, My Father who is In Heaven, who is so Holy that words cannot describe, we ask that Your Ways, YOUR WAYS, NOT MINE be done on this Earth as you have it done In Heaven. This is what it means, that we Live and Judge according to what Jesus has said, because He has said only what The Father in Heaven has said to Him and what Works Jesus has done has been done by The Father!!!
Luke 22:42 KJV
“Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done."
John 5:30 KJV
“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me."
There is no one that likes to be Judged, nor does anyone what to Judge anyone, for the most part that is our nature, but, Judgment is necessary for our sake and the Kingdom Of Heaven’s sake. There will be hard decisions to make, but none the less they have to be made else we will be Judged By Jesus for NOT doing so.
Revelation 3:15-19 KJV
"15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent."
The Church, that is, The Blood Bought, for many are Lukewarm having No Judgment within themselves and are blinded by the pleas of The World to be Acceptable For Their Sin, to Walk contrary to God’s Holy Word and His Spirit have many chosen. But to those who Walk as Jesus has said, according to His Word and by The Holy Spirit, be not weak in your Judgments, for there are many things that we will Judged for at the end of time.
1 Corinthians 6:1-6 KJV
"1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? 2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? 4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. 5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? 6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers."
Let the Godly Men Arise, speaking the Oracles of Jesus with all Authority and Power let them Stand!!! Jesus is coming soon, we know not the day nor the hour He is coming for a Spotless Bride, one that has not bowed a knee to the World or to Satan’s Authority, but for those who would die for Jesus and His Word that they Live.
Judging is Our Jesus Given Authority, and have been given The Power, by The Holy Spirit to do so. Let Judgment be done with Love, but let it be done!! Remember the Scripture that says we will be Judged by the Same Judgment that we Judge others, so the same is towards us, that if we should Judge and do not, that Judgment will turn Against Us for Not Doing So. The Scripture is a Double Edge Sword that we must be careful in using!
Let Judgment Be Set
As It Is In Heaven
So Should It Be
On Earth!
Amen and Amen!!!
