Everybody knows John 3:16 ” For God so greatly loved (You… fill in your name here), and dearly prized the world, that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever (You) believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal/ everlasting life”.
But how many know John 3:17? ” For God did not send the Son into the world (You, fill in your name) to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world (You), but that the world (you) might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him.”
So get this! Jesus was not commissioned or allowed to judge you! Further, He went on to command us in Matthew 7 not to judge or condemn others. Paul taught us in Hebrews that Jesus paid the price once for all sin past present and future and Peter confirmed it in his teachings that Jesus paid the price once for all sin in His body on the tree.
Paul said in the 8th chapter of Romans that there is now no judgment or condemnation for those of us who are in Christ Jesus!
The person we judge the most is ourselves. We condemn ourselves for every mistake and sin and screwup. We judge ourselves constantly. Now think on this, what in the hell are we doing?
Jesus already paid the price for our sins and has forgiven us for them, ALL OF THEM! When you ask Jesus to forgive you He asks what you are talking about. Your sins have been burnt on the trash heap of heaven! They do not exist!
If Jesus does not and can not judge us, who are we to do so? Are we greater than God?
Think about it!
