ໃນມັດທາຍ 7 ພຣະເຢຊູກ່າວ, "ຢ່າຕັດສິນ, ຫຼືທ່ານກໍ່ຈະໄດ້ຮັບການພິພາກສາ. "ເຖິງແມ່ນວ່າຜູ້ທີ່ຂອງພວກເຮົາຜູ້ທີ່ບໍ່ເຄີຍໄດ້ອ່ານຄໍາພີໄບເບິນເວົ້າສ່ວນຫນຶ່ງຂອງຄໍາເທດສະຫນາຂອງພຣະອົງສໍາລັບຄໍາສັບນີ້. ນີ້ອາດຈະເປັນທີ່ຮູ້ຈັກດີທີ່ສຸດຂໍ້ພຣະຄໍາພີໃນມື້ຂອງພວກເຮົາ. ແລະມັນອາດຈະໄດ້ເຂົ້າໃຈຜິດຫຼາຍທີ່ສຸດ

ພຣະເຢຊູບໍ່ສາມາດຫມາຍຄວາມວ່າມັນເປັນການຜິດພາດທີ່ຈະເຮັດໃຫ້ການຕັດສິນໃຈສົມບັດສິນໃດໆ. ພຽງແຕ່ສອງສາມຂໍ້ຕໍ່ມາ, ພຣະເຢຊູບອກຟັງຂອງພຣະອົງເພື່ອເຮັດໃຫ້ຄໍາຕັດສິນກ່ຽວກັບຜູ້ທີ່ພວກເຂົາເຈົ້າແບ່ງປັນຄວາມຈິງທີ່ມີ. ແລະຢູ່ໃນຂໍ້ທີ 15 ຂອງບົດດຽວກັນ, ພຣະເຢຊູບອກໃຫ້ເຂົາເຈົ້າຕັດສິນຄົນທີ່ຂໍກັບເປັນສາດສະດາ, ເພື່ອເຂົ້າໄປເບິ່ງຖ້າຫາກວ່າພວກເຂົາເຈົ້າທີ່ແທ້ຈິງເວົ້າຈາກພຣະເຈົ້າຫລືຖ້າຫາກວ່າພວກເຂົາເຈົ້າກໍາລັງ wolves ໃນເຄື່ອງນຸ່ງ sheep ຂອງ. Not to mention the numerous other passages in Scripture that command us to make varying types of moral judgments. ພຣະເຢຊູບໍ່ໄດ້ຫມາຍຄວາມວ່າການຕັດສິນໃຈທັງຫມົດເປັນສິ່ງທີ່ຜິດ. ແລະຖ້າຫາກວ່າພວກເຮົາມີຄວາມຊື່ສັດກັບຕົວເອງ, ພວກເຮົາບໍ່ໄດ້ຫມາຍຄວາມວ່າບໍ່ວ່າຈະ.
ຈໍານວນຫຼາຍປະຊາຊົນຮຽກຮ້ອງໃຫ້ຊາວວ່າທ່ານບໍ່ຄວນຕັດສິນຜູ້ໃດ, ແຕ່ພວກເຂົາເຈົ້າບໍ່ເຊື່ອວ່າ. They don’t think it’s wrong to call the cops on the drug dealers selling dope in front of their house. And they certainly don’t think it’s wrong to turn off the TV when that greedy preacher starts begging for their money. ຫຼັງຈາກນັ້ນ, ມີ irony ໄດ້. ໃນເວລາທີ່ທ່ານໂທຫາຜູ້ໃດຜູ້ຫນຶ່ງອອກສໍາລັບການຕັດສິນ, ທ່ານກໍາລັງຕົວຈິງເຮັດໃຫ້ເປັນການຕັດສິນໃຈສົມບັດສິນທໍາກ່ຽວກັບບຸກຄົນທີ່. ໃນແຕ່ລະກໍລະນີນີ້, ຄໍາຕັດສິນຂອງກໍາລັງເຮັດກ່ຽວກັບການປະຕິບັດຂອງຄົນອື່ນ.
ແຕ່, ໃນເວລາທີ່ການພິພາກສາ hits ທຸກບ່ອນຢູ່ໃກ້ບ້ານ, ມັນເປັນການຜິດພາດອັດຕະໂນມັດ. ຜູ້ທີ່ພວກເຮົາຈະຕ້ອງເຮັດໃຫ້ການຕັດສິນໃຈກ່ຽວກັບຄົນອື່ນ? ໃຫ້ຄິດວ່າກ່ຽວກັບສິ່ງທີ່ພຣະເຢຊູບໍ່ໄດ້ຫມາຍຄວາມເວລາທີ່ເຂົາບອກພວກເຮົາບໍ່ໃຫ້ຜູ້ພິພາກສາ.

As my pastor just went over this a week ago it is fresh in my mind. Pastor Brian said “judge is not the proper word if you read the Greek and read it in context.” He went on to say a better translation would have been “don’t sentence as a Judge” or act like a judge (old testement style). Making a judgement and passing a sentence are 2 different things.

This is really useful in my life right now. I’ve recently been having discussion with my grandma who is not a believer, and I’m trying to show her God’s love. I will confess my sin to her and ask for her forgiveness, and she will forgive but she will rant about how bad I am at certain things. I know I am wrong because of the conviction I already feel from God, but it bothers me a little bit because she does not see her own sin. She just breaks me down. I smile and love her. I understand that I have issues with loving my family, but it bothers me inside a little bit when she doesn’t acknowledge her own sin and is so quick to acknowledge mine. This is some help though. ຂໍຂອບໃຈ

Right on! To go along with this, Paul says in 1 Corinthians 5:12: “What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside.”
It is our job as believers to hold our brothers and sisters in Christ accountable. ແຕ່, we need to be examining ourselves throughout! Great blog Trip Lee!

Thanks for elaborating on this Trip. This is a very important subject tin this generation. So much entitlement exists. Love the irony you pointed out, ເກີນໄປ.
I see the perception of each judgment as being the problem. Our competitive natures trick us into thinking that someone telling us we are wrong in some dirt if way is an attempt of exaltation. If we see this as a love gesture, it takes on a completely different dynamic.
One more thing that I caught… You phrased this one particular part in a way that could confuse people. You said, ” Jesus doesn’t “mean” to say all judgment is wrong. ແລະຖ້າຫາກວ່າພວກເຮົາມີຄວາມຊື່ສັດກັບຕົວເອງ, we don’t “mean” that either.
Just for clarity sake, perhaps a better way to phrase this is that “We shouldn’t interpret this as Jesus saying” all judgment is wrong.
A quick read through, and someone might go from reading this to thinking, “Oh, Jesus didn’t mean to say that?” When I’m quite sure Jesus meant to say exactly what He said. It’s Ll in interpretation.
I know what you meant. Just holding you to the highest if literary standards. I trust you understand why I said that.
Appreciate your work (all if it, not just the music)! Keep grinding brother!

It’s our motive behind what we say that makes the judgment of our brothers helpful or harmful. Am I thinking, “What you’re doing is wrong! The Bible says so. You need to fix it…” Or is it, “That’s gonna cause pain and I know what that’s like. I care about you and don’t want that for you…”
Like Trip said, in other places we’re told clearly to judge false teachers.
It’s clear we need the Holy Spirit’s discernment to make right judgments, so we should be connecting with Him before, during, and after!
Another good point Trip made is, they won’t hear us even if our heart is in the right place, if we’re not living authentically before God and our brothers.

Excellent article! “By their fruit, ye shall know them.” Clearly Christ whats us to be circumspect in reviewing others – most importantly, when we proclaim the Gospel, the first part is explaining how a person is separated from a Holy God due to sin (that’s a moral judgement!) Then we proclaim that faith in Jesus Christ (His redemptive work on the Cross and the Empty Tomb) is the answer to man’s separation from God, the Father! The Gospel message is incomplete if
we leave out mankind’s LOST position (the Law judges us!) But Christ offers grace to us sinners. As John Newton wrote, “I once was LOST, but now am FOUND!”

Amen bro. I live in Zimbabwe and that verse is even popular here!!! I preach the gospel and I have noticed more times than I care to remember that non-believers and Christians who are not living right use this verse as a shield against correction. ມັນເປັນ sad, really sad…

I fully agree with that interpretation of judging according to Matthew 7. I also wanted to add to that by saying that we as Christians are not to “judge” the world or those not in Christ, but we “judge” the body of Christ or the church. God says that he himself “judges” the world and not us his children. 1 Corinthians 5:12-13

Thanks so much for posting this. I think this message is so necessary for Christians in all walks of life to hear. We need to start loving each other the way Jesus called us to which means addressing areas that need to be addressed in compassion.

Please pray that I will have an open heart to the truth; that I will know it and be set free; that I will have faith in Jesus and repentance of my sin. That I will receive his grace. That I won’t be offended by my need but by sin. ຂອບໃຈ.

ຖ້າຫາກວ່າທ່ານຄິດວ່າກ່ຽວກັບມັນ, “Don’t judge me.”, is actually judgemental.
If someone is trying to help you, and you accuse them of judging you……technically, you are judging them. (And wrongly accusing them at that)
ດ້ວຍຄວາມຊື່ສັດ, you can judge me if you want, I may need correction. (“Correct in love”) Just don’t judge me for my past or by anything but the Word.

wow. This was a great post. Lately, I’ve been trying to remind myself of Matthew 7 but kind of forgot what it meant. And we do need to help each other out but not be harsh about it. ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າຕົກລົງເຫັນດີຫມົດ. It’s kinda sad seeing ppl harshly criticize other ppl and seeing the criticized feel broken. The criticizing are obviously not perfect but they seem to not even realize it. It’s upsetting. More people need to live by Matthew 7. And the last verse was great to. People aren’t going to want to walk a path where everyone on the sidelines are spitting on them.

so here is a question for you. for the past few years i have been working on not jugding anyone for anything. as a addict pretty much everyone in the world jugdes you and this means that somehow these people now know everything about you. even what your thinking or what your gonna do or even how you will act or they may tell you how you feel about something. i really dont get how people can do this. its really bad. i have come to find out there are so many people out there that hate me, and they have never even met me. theres no way to control what pops into our head. mental pre jugdment can be used to prepare yourself personally for things you think may occure cause of what you notice about someone. but if you just pay good attention and can pick up on little things that show fact about someone is that still jugding? and then theres the question about assumption. by far the worst way to jugde somebody. i dont get it. even though you just told this person that you dont trust them to carry out some task because of (usually no reason) OTHER THEN thats just how i feel and is what I KNOW you will do. of course if this person has been known to fail, history can and will repeat, but to tell someone how they feel, think, or how there going to act is bullshit. its basically blind jugdment. and either that person will now feel encompetant and wont even try, or someone like me, will guentee to prove that person so wrong that they will never say that again. but even though you prove yourself time and time again. same assumptions. ຄວາມຄິດ? i could go on all day.
