Judging Others? Stop It!
This topic of judging others could actually be taught in a two-word sermon. When it comes to hating, gossiping, ignoring, ridiculing, holding grudges, or wanting to cause harm, please apply the following:
Stop it!
It’s that simple.

"[With regards to judging and comparing], time would be more productively spent trying to learn from others and trying to understand them better. When we stop expecting others to be like us and spend more time learning to accept others as they are, our love for others will grow" (Molgard, "The Lord Looketh on the Heart", 61).
Matthew 7:12 - "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them."
Ephesians 4:32 - "Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another."
This message is one that really stands out. It looks so simple, yet it is so easy to forget its simplicity as well. I love it though. It helps me keep the right perspective most days.
