Judgment

Matthew 7:1-2:

Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.
New King James Bible

Do not judge and criticize and condemn others, so that you may not be judged and criticized and condemned yourselves. For just as you judge and criticize and condemn others you will be judged and criticized and condemned, and in accordance with the measure you deal out to others it will be dealt to you.
Amplified Bible

Don't pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults - unless, of course, you want the same treatment. That critical spirit has a way of boomeranging.
The Message Bible


Any time you look at what another person is doing (or not doing) and evaluate it - good or bad - you are judging.

God and God alone can change a person's heart, attitude and/or actions. IF God chooses to use you to assist in the change in a person, it is an indication that He can trust you, NOT that you are better then them or even that you have mastered that area that is being changed! NEVER allow yourself to be deceived into thinking otherwise!!
