Before we continue‚ let me make this clear‚ not all people who judge are Christians‚ and not all Christians judge. For the ones who do‚ they have no right to place judgment upon others. It is not there job to do so‚ it is God’s job‚ hence “judgment day”. Allow me to further explain how exactly Christians can judge others. An example
