Work It Out!

Matthew 7:1–6 NKJV
1 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? 5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. 6 “Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.
Today We are starting a New Series Called Too Many Pigs with Pearls, its found in the 6th verse. But before we can exegesis that verse we must fist look at the first 5 verses.
Matthew 7:1–2 NLT
1 “Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. 2 For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.
Judge: Krino- Pass judgement on, to evaluate- to form a critical opinion of something (either positive or negative) By examination or scrutiny.
John 3:17–18 NLT
17 God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him. 18 “There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son.
Look at somebody and tell them God sent his son to save, do dat help save folks
John 5:22 NLT
22 In addition, the Father judges no one. Instead, he has given the Son absolute authority to judge,
John 5:30 NLT
30 I can do nothing on my own. I judge as God tells me. Therefore, my judgment is just, because I carry out the will of the one who sent me, not my own will.
Some Times As Children they see there parents doing things Parents do, and for some reason children think they can do it to.
Some times as members we see our pastor doing something and for some reason some members think they can do that to.
And Sometimes as Christians we see God doing things, and somehow we take on a God like character and think we can do that to. But we ain’t God and he’s only given this authority to his Son.
and Jesus is Just….
just: acting or being in conformity with what is morally upright or good : RIGHTEOUS

12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. 29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. 30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

But Wait, What about that brother or sister who’s easily offened and even when a genuine brother or sister is trying to pull them up. They feel judged.
Galatians 6:1–5 KJV
1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. 3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. 4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. 5 For every man shall bear his own burden.
2 Corinthians 5:17–19 KJV
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Reconciliation: On account of sin, people are alienated from God and cut off from fellowship with him. Through Jesus Christ, God reconciles the world to himself, breaking down the barriers of hostility and estrangement.
