Spiritual Meaning And Understanding Of "Thou Shall Not Judge"

The Usual Statement

The people of the world don’t Joke with the scripture “THOU SHALL NOT JUDGE” while neglecting John 3:16 ” For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” They love to dwell and dine in their sinfulness and also hated to be rebuked or corrected of their wicked and immoral lifestyles. However, when you tend to correct or preach to them while condemning their wicked nature of sin; immediately, the echo, Thou shall not judge will vibrate from their lips.

Moreover, whenever the echo “thou shall not judge” rang, i use to ponder, which judgement would they rather prefer, The Great White Throne Judgement Of God or severe divine warning of man? I did prefer be judge, rebuked and corrected by mortal man rather be Judge by God. Hence, many ignorant believers and unbelievers don’t really understand the spiritual meaning of that scripture.

Thou shall not Judge doesn’t deprived you from correcting or rebuking your brother or sister who love to dwell darkness and indulges into sinfulness. While admonishing him or her, it must be according to the scripture and also justified by the Holy Ghost.

The Actual Meaning Of "Thou Shall Not Judge"

Spiritually, the scripture thou shall not judge apparently means that we are all sinners and also judged and condemned by the punishment of death due to the sin of Adam and Eve. It means, none has heavenly authority or audacity to condemn one another because we are all sinners through the sin of Adam & Eve, but glory to God who sent Jesus to purge away our sins when we sincerely repent, forsake our sins and believe in Christ and accompanied with Christ-like living proof, to be saved from eternal doom. Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”

Ezekiel 18:4 “Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die”

A sinner cannot rebuked or correct his fellow sinner. Likewise a thief cannot rebuke his fellow brother who is into arm robbing, neither can a liar rebuked his fellow brother who is into fornication.
