How many problems have you brought on yourself because you mis-judged a person or a situation?  How many relational issues have you caused because you decided to act in an unforgiving or ungracious way?  The problem with judging someone or condemning someone is we don’t have all the information.  We make decisions based on our personal viewpoints and emotions, not based on reality and truth.  Even what we believe to be true is open for interpretation because we don’t see a person’s heart.  That is why Jesus said… judge not, condemn not and forgive.  Forgiveness is key to the Spirit-filled life.  Forgiveness is the oil that keeps the wheels of relationship turning.  If you’ve made a rash judgement based on your condemning attitudes towards someone, be careful.  You may be closing the door to the Spirit’s work in your life.  Rather walk in forgiveness.

“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.Luke 6:37 NKJV
