Slide1

Righteous Judgment

Matthew 7:1Slide2

A Blanket Condemnation of Sin

Condemning all forms of judgment is foolish and unbiblical

A judgment is simply a conclusion based on evidence

Good, bad, or neutralSlide3

Commands to Judge

Matthew 7:3-6

From the very context of this verse!

John 7:24

Jesus commanded and regulated judgment

Philippians 1:9-11

Approve what is excellentSlide4

Many use Matthew 7:1 to condemn a different type of judgment…Slide5

Judgments Against Well-Meaning People

“The ends justify the means”

“Unity in diversity”

“Many paths to Heaven”

“Be a positive change in the world”

These all have one thing in common

More concerned with intent and result than an authorized processSlide6

Many really use Matthew 7:1 to say, “Don’t condemn people who mean well and are working to do good. Save your judgment for those who promote hatred and evil.”Slide7

God Cares About Process

Commands us to worship Him

Also prescribes a pattern to follow

Preaching, singing, praying, communion, and a free-will offering

Taking the Lord’s Supper as an example:

1 Corinthians 11:23-29 – emblems & mindset

Acts 20:7 – frequency and day Slide8

God Cares About Process

Church organization as an example:

Elders (1Pet. 5:1ff; Acts 20:28ff; 1Tim. 3; Titus 1)

Deacons (1Tim. 3; Acts 6)

Evangelists (2Tim. 4:1-5)

Each member working according to his/her talents (Rom. 12:3-8)

Congregational autonomySlide9

What does righteous judgment look like?Slide10

Righteous Judgment Is… Consistent

Free from hypocrisy (

Matt. 7:1-5)

Human nature to be blind to our own sins

John 8:1-11 another example of hypocritical judgmentSlide11

Righteous Judgment Is…

Persistent

Seeks out the truth (Matt. 7:7-14)

Righteous judgment asks, seeks, and knocks

Wisdom loves those who seek her diligently

Prov. 8:12, 17Slide12
