But we can see actions, and we can judge those actions against God's standards. When they don't line up, I think we have a responsibility not to let things slide. You are so right, though, about recognizing that we ourselves are certainly not without sin. Judging should never be, "Oh, I'm perfect and I'm going to tell you everything that's wrong with your life." No, that would make us Pharisees, which I definitely don't want to be compared to. Criticism should be given in a spirit of love and humility, guided by God, not by our own impulses. Great post!Rachelle O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02884513979937452569noreply@blogger.com
