NO FINGER POINTING!

 

NO FINGER POINTING!

 

Today Jesus tells us=

ABOUT good and bad fruit

 

EVERYONE of us=have some good

And some bad=IN US=Therefore

We should NOT BE=

Pointing out another’s faults=

WHEN we have enough bad faults=IN

Our own selves

NO FINGER POINTING!

 

“Jesus said=to his disciples’=

‘……..By their FRUITS=you will know them

 

Do people pick grapes=from thornbushes=or

Figs from thistles?=Just so=EVERY GOOD TREE

Bears good fruit=and a rotten tree=Bears bad fruit’”                                                                Matthew 7:15-17

 

So many of us=FEEL SUPERIOR to others=and

ARE so critical of others=all we=have to do

 

Is LOOK AT some=of

The social media postings

 

NO FINGER POINTING!=no wonder

Jesus warns us=against such things

 

“Do not show partiality=IN JUDGING

Hear both sides=small=and great alike

 

Do not be afraid of anyone=FOR JUDGMENT

Belongs to God”                                                                                                                        Deuteronomy 1:17

 

“Teach me knowledge=AND GOOD JUDGMENT

For I=trust your commands”                                                                                                        Psalm 119:66

 

“But I tell you=That everyone

Will have to=give account

 

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT=for

Every empty word=they have spoken”                                                                                     Matthew 12:36

 

I don’t know about you=but

JESUS’ teachings=on judgment and forgiveness

SCARES the heck out of me

 

I just=WANT TO LOVE

I just want=to be KIND

NO FINGER POINTING!=from me

 

Blaming and shaming others=ACCOMPISHES NOTHING

It is=bad fruit=Jesus’ teaching on JUDGMENT is crystal clear

We are=NOT supposed to do it

 

Every time=that you do it=JUST REMEMBER

There is a finger=POINTING BACK AT YOU!

No judging

 

“For we will all=stand before God’s

JUDGMENT SEAT”                                                                                                                       Romans 14:10

 

“If we deliberately=keep on sinning

After we have received=the knowledge

Of the truth=No sacrifice for sins=is left

 

But only a fearful expectation=OF JUDGMENT

And raging fire”                                                                                                                  Hebrews 10:26-27

 

You will get no judgments=

NO FINGER POINTING!=from me

 

Just love=kindness=and forgiveness

I want=TO FOLLOW GOD!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our EVER LOVING=ever forgiving=ever living=Holy Father God!
