Why do other christian Judge others for what they believe sometimes?

Do you know what I mean? It's almost like believing in the Lord Jesus Christ doesn't cut the cake.

Just because other people may disagree with your own view in the way you see things, doesn't mean that we can't have unity in the spirit of the Lord, by having faith in Him, and sharing and rejoicing that the Lord Jesus Christ, has had an impact in our life, by restoring us to being able to have a relationship with with Him, and His Father when you pray you can know that they are always near by to listen to you, and to help you in your life daily, and care about everything that goes on in your life daily, and about others.

It's good to have a relationship with God, and Jesus Christ.
If I saw you walking towards a cliff and I don’t say anything then man might say that I didn’t do anything wrong but GOD Is looking right at the heart.

We shouldn’t judge others but we should sharpen each other renewing our minds and be moving towards being mature In unity to the full stature of our LORD AND SAVOIR JESUS CHRIST.

Respect .....now there is a key word :)

Amen to this...


100% agree with you. There are ways and means of tackling opposing views and different interpretation of scripture, but we should always - ALWAYS do so with love and respect. Heaven knows we get enough grief in the big bad world outside of CC.

Undergrace Sister, you are right about respecting others, Sister Amazing-Grace, I'm glad that you see it this way too because there are many a different people among us here on this world, with many different opinions and views on the way they may suggest it to be like, because of their experiences growing up in life, and gaining character to be able to have these different opinions and views.

We can most certainly all have the same opinion about the truth of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ,
That he came down from heaven, lived a life on this earth, taught the disciples many things we can learn from spiritually by the holy spirit, died, and God raised Him back again to life, and by having faith in Him we can have a relationship with Him, and His Father, and understand that they care about us, and they care about others too, and hear us when we pray to them. We can read the Word of God, and grow in the knowledge of God and the Lord Jesus Christ as scripture says.

I believe that there is freedom in Christ Jesus, that you can Love God, and Love Others.

If someone may disagree with you at a certain point (not about the gospel) but something else in the bible because they may not view it your way, and someone deems that person as a non-saved person even when they confess they believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, is something that really bothers me, an errks me as a human being/ It is what is considered bad fruit.

There will be people out there I guess that do judge, and they might never change from being that way, and God bless them anyway, they have the right to decide for themselves. We just have to remember we are saved by the grace of God; that is not from ourself but God, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, who we place our faith and trust in.

The Bereans didn't just accept Paul's teachings - they compared them to scripture. And we are commanded to judge and to test all things:

1 Corinthians 2:15.

1 Thessalonians 5:21.

If we didn't judge, anyone could teach anything, no matter how heretical, and we couldn't protest.
Maby judge is the wrong word. Our Lord will judge, but you are right we have to compare teachings with the word of God. Problem is, that many are taking for their false teachings the word of God. So we need also the Holy Spirit to identify wrong teachings.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But people who aren’t spiritual[g] can’t receive these truths from God’s Spirit. It all sounds foolish to them and they can’t understand it, for only those who are spiritual can understand what the Spirit means.15 Those who are spiritual can evaluate all things, but they themselves cannot be evaluated by others.
1 Thessalonians 5:
15 See that no one pays back evil for evil, but always try to do good to each other and to all people.16 Always be joyful.17 Never stop praying.18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. 19 Do not stifle the Holy Spirit.20 Do not scoff at prophecies,21 but test everything that is said. Hold on to what is good.22 Stay away from every kind of evil.


There is nothing wrong with testing things that are said.

But if someone believes differently than you, even with using the bible scriptures, and a different view, on something that has nothing to do with salvation, judge someone that they are a heretic, if they believe in the Lord Jesus Christ who died and rose again by God?

Why is that?


I mean the main gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, was about Him coming down, dying for the sins of the whole world, being rose again by God, (which symbols everyone will be raised again after death), also symbolizes that Jesus Christ has had victory over death, satan, his demons, and most of all of the sin that covered the entire world.

Anyone who believes in their heart that the Lord Jesus Christ, was raised again and believe and trust in Him, should be able to know that they can have a relationship with Him, and His Father through prayer, and growing in knowledge in God, and the Lord Jesus Christ.



Problem is that only the Lord looks into our heart. And we can tell each other a lot without can prove we are hinest ore not.
A different view is in fact not the problem, but a wrong useing of the word of god.

.

I'm sorry, but I don't agree. The Holy Scripture teaches us to fight for the unity of the faith (1Cor 1.10; Ephesians 4.3-6; Phil 4.2). How Jesus is the essence of the Holy Scripture (John 1.1), to change one comma means to change the character of Jesus. In this case, it isn't Jesus more, but other god.

Yeah that is okay if you dont agree, and im talking about those who confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour from understanding that He died and was risen again, and if they have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ no one can judge them and their own faith.

im just talking about those who confess that the Lord Jesus Christ as their savior from understanding what the scripture says about what he did do for the world which was pay for sin, and if we look towards Him we can be saved and have a relationship with Him and His Father.

==============================================

maybe not 'unity' for you, but how about Jesus' Love', that a 'comma could never change?!?
for His Love is expressed in us, and that takes each and everyone to a great challenge,
to learn and accept at His given time?!?!?

this is how we learn to 'use' the FAITH that He gives and then, He gives us more, day-by-day,
as we obey and learn to use this most magnificent GIFT...
