Judge Not That Ye Be Not Judged?-Part G

Hello World:
In the previous post, I mentioned I would say more about several preachers behavior, here in this post, that I have observed and from what the Lord showed me. However, instead, I will say more in details about that in another post coming up soon. This is a very important topic series, and I felt led of the Lord to say if you are involved with a Christian church, as a minister, leader or member, you may want to read all these posts in this judging series. 

Also, I want to add in here for the record something about the edits I added back in part D. Let me say that in mentioning those three times in the scriptures or Bible where I believe the Apostle Paul was wrong, that is NOT to take away from Paul being a quality, chosen man of God, because he was.

I also believe that the Apostle Paul and Peter and the rest of the Biblical patriarches, prominent Apostles and teachers would agree with me, with what I am saying here in this series. Now, they may not, however, I am VERY confident that, again, they would agree with what I am saying; and that I am in line with the MEANING and SPIRIT of God's word. 

Scripture Reference Romans Chapter 2: Verse 1; "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou judgest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same thing."

I want to mention again, that if a person is led to judge or to correct someone, he or she should not be guilty of doing the same thing, or like Jesus said in St. Matthew 7, they must be able to meet that measurement or standard by which they judge the other person. That does not mean that the person judging is perfect. It does mean that God needs to speak through somebody, to get the person's attention before you burn in hell. ALSO even if that person speaking of God is not perfect, God, by speaking to them or showing them things is showing that HE is pleased with their spiritual walk and they are doing something right. He, God, TRUST THEM, more than He trust other people, with information and to speak or to deliver information. So, do NOT kill the messenger of God.

Another excuse that EX-preacher said, when I was talking to him, is that I do not know his heart and you can not judge a person's heart by what they do. That is NOT true. You can know a person's heart; not in your own power, but by the Spirit of God revealing the person's heart and motives to you.

I have heard other people, who are plain sinners, complain about the same thing, that the preacher has no right to speak to them and judge them, because the preacher does not know them. Well, the preacher may not know them, but God knows them, and if God reveals to the preacher what you ate last night, or that you stole from your children back on Thurday evening, then the preacher by the Spirit of God, knows what you did.

If God tells the preacher, just using an example, that you need to love your children, and stop mistreating them or you will die and go to hell tonight, then the preacher then knows that about you. So, the preacher in himself does not know you, but God will show and tell the preacher things about you, and then the preacher will know things about you, about what kind of person you are and your heart. That is very easy for God to do. God will reveal things about you to him, for him to tell you to straighten up, because you think you are getting away with hurting people, but God sees it and you will answer to God to be punished.

1 Corinthians Chapter 2: Verse 11; "For what man knoweth the things of man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God."

Verse 12; "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God."

Verse 13; "Which things also we speak, not in words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual."

Verse 14; "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."

Verse 15; "BUT HE THAT IS SPIRITUAL JUDGETH ALL THINGS, YET HE HIMSELF IS JUDGED OF NO MAN."

Verse 16; "For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

I want to also present some scriptures here from Ezekiel.

Scripture reference Ezekiel Chapter 3: Verse 15; " Then I came to them of the capitivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days."

Verse 16; "And it came to pass at the end of the seven days, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,"

Verse 17; "Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore HEAR THE WORD AT MY MOUTH, AND GIVE THEM WARNING FROM ME!"

Verse 18; "When I say unto the wicked, thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand."

Verse 19; "Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul."

Verse 20; "Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand."

Verse 21; "Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul."

I want to return and discuss judging churches.
