IT IS UNDENIABLE THAT BIBLE JUDGEMENTALISM IS HATE
Jesus repeatedly showed hatred for the sins of others by urging
repentance and threatening and calling people evil. If you cannot
truly value the person with sins then he is to blame. He is the
greatest hater of all time for he ranted like an insane person with
an obsession.
Here are some excellent scripture verses on judging:
Leviticus 19:15: "You shall do no injustice in judgment; you shall not be
partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge
your neighbor.
Proverbs 31:9: Open your mouth, judge righteously; maintain the rights of the
poor and needy.
Matthew 7:2: For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the
measure you give will be the measure you get.
Luke 6:37: "Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not
be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven;
(**NOTE—Here we see the link between judging and condemning)
Matthew 18:15: "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault,
between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.
(**NOTE – Here is a prime case of Jesus telling us all to admonish the sinner).
Luke 7:40-43: And Jesus answering said to him, "Simon, I have something to say
to you." And he answered, "What is it, Teacher?" "A certain creditor had two
debtors; one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. When they could not
pay, he forgave them both. Now which of them will love him more?" Simon
answered, "The one, I suppose, to whom he forgave more." And he said to him,
"You have judged rightly."
(**NOTE – Here we see the use of the term “judged” in the context of judging
someone’s actions, rather than personal condemnation).
Luke 12:57: "And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?
(**NOTE – Once again, we see the use of the term “judge” in the context of
judging actions, not condemning people and passing judgment).
John 7:24: Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."
(**NOTE – Here Jesus commands us to judge people’s actions and deeds with “right
judgment”.)
Acts 4:19: But Peter and John answered them, "Whether it is right in the sight
of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge;
(**NOTE – Another case of judging people’s actions, rather than the person).
1 Corinthians 2:15: The spiritual man judges all things, but is himself to be
judged by no one.
1 Corinthians 6:2-3: Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And
if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?
Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, matters pertaining
to this life!
(**Note – No wonder satan hates Christians so much – we will be judging him one
day!)
Hebrews 10:30: For we know him who said, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay." And
again, "The Lord will judge his people."
(**NOTE – Here we see that the Lord judges people. That in no way precludes us
from judging whether or not people’s actions are sinful or not.)
James 4:12: There is one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to
destroy. But who are you that you judge your neighbor?
(**NOTE – James says that we should not judge our neighbor. Once again, this
does not stop us from judging whether or not our neighbor’s actions (killing his
wife, stealing money, etc.) is sinful. Note how this differs from James 5:20
above, where James talks about bringing a sinner back from the error of his ways
(sinfulness)).
