Matthew 7:
[1] Judge not, that ye be not judged.
[2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
[3] And why beholdest thou the MOTE that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the BEAM that is in thine own eye?
John 8:
[4] They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
[5] Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
[6] This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
[7] So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is WITHOUT SIN among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
[8] And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
[9] And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
[10] When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
[11] She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Why obsess upon the sins of the flesh in order to divide us while ignoring the essential Truth that we are One People of One Flesh? Is that not precisely what the devil desires? We are all His Idren, His Most Precious Creations, and His Love for each & every one of His Idren is beyond measure. If each man is worthy of that esteem & Love in the Eyes of the Most High then how much greater should our Respect and Love for one another be? Forgiveness, Love and charity for our fellow YouMans are what His Majesty exhorts of us; not judgment of one another.
