Jesus’ words in Matthew 7 are very familiar to us as students of God’s Word. It is perhaps one of the most misused and misunderstood Scriptures of the Bible. If it hasn’t happened already, I can assure you that we will encounter people in our lives that will use this verse to justify their sinful behaviors. “Judge not, that you be not judged” is a favorite verse of spiritually sick Christians and antagonistic atheists. When a sin is pointed out in their life they come to this passage and say, “Aren’t you a Christian? Jesus said not to judge! Leave me alone and your own business!” When they utter these words they feel as if they have turned the tables on us by using the “UNO-Reverse Card” so-to-speak. So what exactly does this passage mean? Is it true that Jesus forbids us from judging others? The remainder of our study will seek to answer that very question.
