A Sermon On Judging and Politics - Kingdom Culture - Joey McLaughlin
Manage episode 448483344 series 2893009
"Only God can judge me", has shaped the world and cultural landscape that we live in. But is it true?
Matthew 7:1 is perhaps not just the most quoted verse by non-Christians, it is probably also the most misused and misunderstood verse by humanity.
We miss what Jesus is actually saying in His brilliant Kingdom sermon on the Mount.
For many, if not most people today, there is no enemy other than the man who is not open to everything.
In His sermon on the mount, Jesus actually gives a command on how to judge. It's not a command not to judge. It is a command on how to judge the word judge. Here in the Greek, it's a word, carino, and it means to distinguish or to make a decision, to make a calculated call based upon all of the evidence that that is at hand.
In this sermon we take a dive into what it means to judge rightly, which is more needed in this time than ever.
