Judging Moral Failures

5Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend's eye.

Matthew 7:5

20If someone says, "I love God," but hates a fellow believer,4:20 Greek hates his brother. that person is a liar; for if we don't love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see?

1 John 4:20

11Don't speak evil against each other, dear brothers and sisters.4:11 Greek brothers. If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God's law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you.

James 4:11
2For you will be treated as you treat others.7:2a Or For God will judge you as you judge others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.7:2b Or The measure you give will be the measure you get back.

Matthew 7:1-2
39A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'22:39 Lev 19:18.
Matthew 22:37-39
