I guess my answer is that if the testimony of one is not that they are saved by grace, then why judge them with condemnation when your judgement testifies to an absence of grace? James 2:13 For judgement is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgement.

They have rejected mercy and chosen judgment. I judge not but the word of God bares witness against them.

God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. Jesus said of them He would have gathered them as hen would her chicks but they would not.

Mt 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Joh 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

See, this is my point of this - how do you even know someone has rejected mercy and chosen judgement? Can you look so deeply into the hearts of those you condemn? i'm not trying to be mean, just genuinely curious. Also, this second sentence in bold ..."I judge not, but the word of God bares witness against them" is truly a cop out. Yes you did judge and then tried wash your hands of it placing the offence on scripture.
