James 5:9

James 5:9

Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

People are difficult to get along with some times, and that applies even to our precious brothers and sisters in Christ. This scripture lets us know it isn't okay to grumble against our brother and sisters, that we should always have grace towards one another. Let's let Jesus be the judge, because if we judge one another we are actually condemning ourselves.

Thank you <3 and may I continue with :
Romans 2:1-4 "You may think you can condemn such people, but you are just as bad, and you have no excuse! When you say they are wicked and should be punished, you are condemning yourself, for you who judge others do these very same things. And we know that God, in his justice, will punish anyone who does such things. Since you judge others for doing these things, why do you think you can avoid God’s judgment when you do the same things? Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin?"

In support of your point... Proverbs 6:16-19 says that God "Hates" when a brother causes strife/division among other brethren.

Yes! I pray that we may always be reminded that judgement is reserved for God alone and to not misplace high value in our own understandings of the things of this world!

Excellent post. I will definitely keep this in mind for future reference
