Most Christians know we should not judge the world’s actions (1 Corinthians 5:12-13), but what about fellow followers? Some followers of Christ think you should not attempt to Biblically correct Christians whose actions contradict the Bible. Most people who believe this use:
Judge not, that ye be not judged. Matthew 7:1
Unfortunately, this verse has been manipulated. This manipulation allows Christians who are doing their own thing to keep doing so—without anyone questioning their actions.
We must handle the Word properly. You should not approach someone with the wrong motives or heart or when you are knowingly living in sin yourself. Also, you should not judge a Christian and blatantly say the person is going to hell for what they are doing, as you do not know the person’s ultimate path in Christ. Your intent should be to bring about repentance and to correct him or her in Love.
