Passing judgement

How do you want to be remembered? Where in the Bible does it say we as Christians should pass judgment? 

If you look at your Bible, the religious leaders of the time always judged others for what they did. The religious leaders passed judgment when it wasn't there to do so. We as Christians so often Judge others by appearance, they are not like us, having different thinking, lifestyles, and anything else you can think of.  (In any of these things sin is still sin) I'm not talking about sin; I am talking about in general. 

I recently watched the Jesus Revolution movie and saw firsthand that they were doing the same thing we are doing today. They judged those kinds of people before they got to know them. A Bible study leader was going into the grocery store one time and saw a biker dude at the door and didn't feel too good about it but as he got up there, He was actually out there for His local church. This leader judged Him by appearance.

Again, I ask where does it say to judge others in the Bible? 

We need to look to the Bible for answers, not religion because religion gets it wrong If they got it right, we wouldn't be talking about this.

10 But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God. Romans 14:10 ASV.

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 unto you. Matthew:1-2 ASV

11 For it is written,

As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow,
And every tongue shall confess to God.

12 So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God.

13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother’s way, or an occasion of falling. Romans 14:11-13 ASV

The Bible is clear we are not judge. God is the judge, and we will be judged on that day. 

I am here to say that I have done as the leader did, judging others before getting to know them. I judged people for what they had done. I am just like you. and make mistakes. 

But when things are going wrong in religion, the world, and our lives, we need to look to the Bible and see that it is clear we are not to judge.

Jesus never did but what did he do? Tomorrow we will look at this.
