Today’s scripture: James 4:11-12
We are told in these verses and others in God’s word that we are not to judge
others. It is not our job. Yet how often do we point fingers at others? We
judge their behavior. We judge their choices.
But the Bible makes it clear: We are not to judge others.
That’s God’s job.
“There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to
destroy …” God and He alone has the right to judge because He and He alone is
holy and righteous. He is perfect and without sin.
We are not—definitely not—holy and righteous. Oh no. We are sinful and fleshly.
We should be focused on cleaning up our own acts rather than telling others how
they should clean up their own.
So next time you’re tempted to judge someone else, let it go. Let the Judge of
all of us do His job. And you do your job of becoming more like Christ.
