Sick of this "do not judge" crap

You could also apply this to the fluoride in the water thing
If you believe it is unhealthy then help come up with a other solution

If they remove the fluoride in the water, maybe they could lower the costs for healthy food instead so people eat healthier to counter tooth decay that way

Always offer a better solution on how to solve the problem
if you point one out, pointing out a problem is only half the work

The Bible is very clear on this judging shit.

Like, the five virgins who forgot their oil, you know.

To Hell with them.

I will use my best judgement to determine whether or not it is safe/appropriate for me and my children to be around certain people. Loving one another doesn't mean exposing yourself to danger.

1 Corinthians 5


5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this? 3 For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. 4 So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh,[a] so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.

6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough? 7 Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. 8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[c] but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.

12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”[d]


Footnotes:

I live in rural PA and some people back here, they have the rotted out looking teeth. That is from no fluoride in the water. The hard minerals in the well water eat the teeth. I would rather have flouride.

But ya

John 8:7
“Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone(at her).”

To hell with you

I don't think they power spray their teeth with water all day, that is bullshit minerals in water do not decay teeth at all, we don't have fluoride in our water also, there is no teeth decay epidemic here, and if so its mostly from sugars,soft drinks and smoking

And if you brush your teeth in that water from a child till an adult or beyond, you bet your ass its going to show.

Different areas have different minerals in the water. Here there is a lot of lime, copper, iron and yes it is hard on the teeth. Another reason I know this is true is the people from in town where they are on city water do not have this problem. Only people who get their water from a well.

Your response makes no sense to me. This thread is about Christians thinking they are right to judge people.

Your rhetoric makes no sense to *me*

Please give me of an example of how you would not judge a local convicted pedophile, and would "love" him or her?

I think they should be locked up for life, let God judge them

Love is a higher moral outlook than mere tolerance. Tolerance is just watching without saying anything as someone close to you drinks themselves to death. Love is intervening to save them.

The judging that Christians are not to do is declaring whether someone is going to heaven or hell. That's God's call. But on matters of personal conduct, God's judgement has already been handed down through the writers of the biblical texts. Passing that on to someone engaged in immoral behavior is not judging. It's recognizing the behavior for what it is and informing the person of God's judgement. It should be done in a loving way, being mindful that we all fall short of spiritual perfection and are only granted mercy through the sacrifice of Lord Yeshua.

We are not talking about someone judging someone in a court of law. I also believe in the death penalty as a matter of fact.

What we are talking about it Christians thinking they should judge another's sins. In that matter, I believe Jesus said not to do it.

At no point did He ever say not to convict a criminal.

apples and oranges

Betcha AC is a sodomite.

Oh my God!

I'm absolutely dying! You're a riot, Anhedonic. LOL!!

having itching ears - Most of modern Christians have a foot in both worlds. Warm and fuzzy sing a longs even with a TV in many churches. Theatrical production with music.
Dumb dogs, they do not bark.

i'm happy that stuff does not apply to me at all....it is about rebuke, reprove, kill evil, and judge according to G-d's laws. OT for the win! :)

Bullshit, seriously. If you see evil and do nothing you are a partaker.

I'm a better Christian than you and I'm an atheist.

No, you're just nosey fuckers who think you have all the answers. You don't...

Ha!!!

Right! We need more partaker's. Citizen arrest those bitches.
No seriously, ya more people need to quit saying "its none of my business, I don't want to get involved". There is a difference between that and straight judging someone.

NOPE! We are not to judge whether someone is damned or the what is in their hearts -- as in the reason they are doing something -- since no one but God can look into their hearts, but we certainly HAVE to judge. You shall know them by their fruits. It is our responsibility to tell someone if what they are doing is sinful or immoral, etc. Sorry to burst your bubble, hon.

thats called deluding yourself. Do not judge is a lesson from god and you are failing miserably.

What a load of CRAP! Mind your own fucking bussiness before minds yours. Keep up your self righteous bullshit and someday you will reap what you sow. Then you will be judged wrongfully like you have jugded others. Nobody has a right judge others period. Love is about forgiveness not judgement end of discussion. Leave your angry god cult out of it. FFS!

YOU ROCK!

Hahahahaha! OP said nothing directly to you. Don't like it? Move along!

We are to judge righteous judgment according to the Standard. ( God's words and laws)

The scripture which is half quoted says..

Judge not .. least you be judged. For with what standard you judge you will be judged.

In other words.. Judge righteously the actions of others by the standard of the word of GOD. If you decide to make your own standard to judge someone....then God will judge you with that same unrighteous standard you created.

As to the Final Judgement of Heaven or Hell.. That is God's.


So.. According to you, if you see someone in danger, you will not make a judgement call to save him/her?

How very Christian of you! So typical.
