Christians only: How do you judge someone?

The "shall not judge" quote is the most misunderstood scripture in the Bible and is used most often by the people that are the ones sinning. Yet they cast away the admonishions of the very same book which gives a better context to scripture in other verses. The quotes below are directed at fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

James 5:19 My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, 20remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins.

1 Corinthians 5

9I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

10Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

11But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

12For what have I to do to judge them also that are without(non Christian)? do not ye judge them that are within(Christians)?

13But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Romans 15

14 Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to ''''admonish'''' one another.

2 Thessalonians 3

6 But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he[a] received from us.

2 Thessalonians 3

13 But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good. 14 And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed. 15 Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

2 Timothy 3

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 complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Some do. But I additionally feel that there's a false impression of what judging is. When a Christian speaks God's fact, and one other man or woman does not find it irresistible, or "feels" judged via that, it doesn't suggest they're being judged. When humans sin, frequently they are trying to justify that sin and say it's k therefore or that. When it's mentioned that, it's actually sin and can not be justified they believe judged. But simply it's God's fact and nobody owns that. If I say "intercourse external of marriage is a sin" that is real on the grounds that God says it, no longer on the grounds that I say it. I am additionally no longer announcing I'm greater somehow. If I have been that could be visible as judging.

This is hard. I have a lot of trouble with this also. My father was very judgmental and I kind of took on his mindset but I absolutely hate being like that.. God gave me some wisdom that I prayed for, and this is what I learned: We will never figure out people, we can assume things are a certain way but we will usually be wrong. it's not fair to judge people. we don't want to be judged so therefore judge not. just put yourself in their shoes.

it's hard to put it into words, but i hope i helped!

Human giving judgment is based on human standard, outward person is observed, the overt act which is attempting, frustrating and consummating.

While judges the heart of man, his innermost thinking.

So you went to school, to social gatherings. The standard actuation of man but be acted upon.

Don't know how christians do it

Be true to yourself

Be nice to everyone

Why judge? Be friends with everyone, throw a party, result no more war, no more hate.

Sounds like an Idea - we will need everyone to make it work

There is a righteous kind of judgment we are supposed to exercise—with careful discernment (John 7:24).

"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment".

When Jesus told us not to judge (Matthew 7:1), He was telling us not to judge hypocritically.

"Judge not, that ye be not judged."

Jesus warns against judging someone else for his sin when you yourself are sinning even worse. That is the kind of judging Jesus commanded us not to do.

If a believer sees another believer sinning, it is his Christian duty to lovingly and respectfully confront the person with his sin (Matthew 18:15-17).

15Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

16But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

We are to proclaim what God's Word says about sin. 2 Timothy 4:2 instructs us, "Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage — with great patience and careful instruction." We are to "judge" sin, but always with the goal of presenting the solution for sin and its consequences—the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:6).

I agree with joe b

We are to judge brothers and sisters inside the church

We are to restore a brother who is in sin

you dont..the bible teaches us in matthew 7:1 judge and ye not be judged, judge and you Will be judge, so we as christains are not suppose to judge people..

god bless u to..

I don't "judge" anyone. I state facts. Unfortunately the truth is just too incomprehensible to some individuals.

your not supposed to judge a person lest you be judged but you can see what type of person someone is by their fruits.
