2Unrighteous Judging Matthew 71-5
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what
judgment you judge, you will be judged and with
the measure you use, it will be measured back to
you. Why do you look at the speck that is in
your brothers eye, but do not notice the log
that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to
your brother, Let me take the speck out of your
eye, and behold, the log is in your own
eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of
your own eye, and then you will see clearly to
take the speck out of your brothers eye.

5Love Thinks No Evil
Love is not judgmental. Love does not quickly
find fault, assume motives, or form unjust
opinions of others. Instead, love is eager to
make allowances for the perceived mistakes of
others and put on them a charitable construction.
