Who is the judge?


  • For our U.S. readers: Today is Memorial Day, a day set aside to remember those who died in active military service. We also honor all who serve: Thank you for your service.

    This is true: God is the Judge. We are not.

    So... why do we act like the judge of others so often?

Don't speak evil against each other, my dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize each other and condemn each other, then you are criticizing and condemning God's law. But you are not a judge who can decide whether the law is right or wrong. Your job is to obey it. God alone, who made the law, can rightly judge among us. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to condemn your neighbor? (James 4:11-12 NLT)
