You should be following THE GOD MABEL. If you do not follow her, you will be damned for all eternity.

There are some who would say do not judge if you don’t want to be judged. The fact of the matter is if you don’t judge you are not following Jesus at all.

We are all being judged whether you like or not. Best do the will of the one who sent Him.

“I said you are gods, all of you sons of the Most High.”

“Rise up O god and judge the earth!”

That is how the son frees you. Become the son. Rise up and judge!

Can you do it?
That is what Christ Within does, judges you , you know if you did good or not, through your consciousness.
Until you are able to judge yourself.

I suppose if you can see into everyone's heart to the same extent as Jesus can, you have every right to judge as He judged. Personally, I don't believe any of us can.

Everyone who has finished their schooling into the kingdom of God can see into the hearts of man and can bring forth the old and the new just as their teacher who lives in them and they in Him.

Well that’s not how Jesus did so. He judged as He heard by doing the will of the Father!

'judge' means choose between good and evil, selection. Christ within is given so you could select properly.

I know what judging is because Jesus said it is to do the will of God.

I posted the verse but man ignores it because they cannot come to the light in their wicked ways.

If man can accept the good and reject the evil then they come to the light and the truth of the only God.

“Render true judgement and show kindness and compassion to one another.”

Are you thinking about what happens when a fellow believer (one who calls themselves your brother or sister in the faith) are unrepentant in their wayward actions and conduct?

Paul wrote something of interest with regard to judging others....

" In my letter I wrote you to stop keeping company with sexually immoral people, not meaning entirely with the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people or extortioners or idolaters. Otherwise, you would actually have to get out of the world. But now I am writing you to stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner not even eating with such a man. For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do you not judge those inside while God judges those outside

So the principle is to address those who say "hey bro (fellow believer in Christ) I'm just like you." Yet if the person is a habitual liar, commits adultery, steals, takes human life and is unrepentant and isn't willing to follow Christ's footsteps closely then those are the one's that are "judged." Even then what becomes of them is ultimately God's call. What Paul said aligns with what Jesus said in Matthew 18:15-17

How can any of you accept any of this as uncorrupted by human weakness when Jesus Himself associated with heathens and publicans? The "exclusivity gene" acts quickly to make us feel special!!! So much of what has been adopted as Christian dogma contradicts or is inconsistent with what Jesus Himself ACTUALLY did. I can't understand why it has been so readily accepted. We are indeed a perverse people!!

Default Jesus says we must judge as He judged!

Well, that would pretty much place judgment out of our reach!!! To judge as Jesus did we would have to be like Jesus and have the same capabilities. I certainly would never assume that I was in any way comparable to Jesus! Good luck with that judging business. It seems like a dicey enterprise to me.
