Arach's scripture quote writes:
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Faith, I think you're totally wrong. You've baked some bizarre interpretation so that you can personally go on judging others. I advise that you don't judge others.
Judging others is a disgusting sin. It is also a completely irrational and insecure characteristic.
Knowing information, and therefore judging a circumstance correctly because things are at stake, is not the same as general nasty spiteful guesses about people.
Judging other people is clearly against the scriptures, and Christ's message to people in general.
There is plenty of evidence in the scriptures that determining whether or not someone is a true Christian is definitely the right thing to do.
Knowing people by their fruit and being cautious isn't the same as judging people in general, and saying nasty things about them, because you personally have wild irrational guesses about them. You cannot know if they truly are Christian, so how can it be a righteouss judgement?
And your comment about God knowing it is sin in their heart has nothing to do with what the point was. The point was that you don't know if the person is sinful or not, or repentant or not, or has some unforeseable inexplicable circumstances only he and God know about.
I have always rememered what a homeless man said to me once; "thanks for not judging me". If I had thought nasty things in my heart about him such as, "you drunk, get a job, get a home", then 1. I would have judged him even though I am sinful and don't even know the man,(Arach's scripture quote) and 2. I wouldn't have helped him. Therefore such judgements cause me to sin, and not help someone God commands to help.
God, who is righteouss, is the one who frees the sinner despite his sin, yet the fellow-servant, who has many sins, judges the sinner. (Think about this sentence a lot)
People in general, aren't law enforcers, so Christ can not have been talking about physical judgement, as the scripture is a warning to all. (this is a logical deduction)
"Thou hypocrite" indicates a linguistic situation, aswell as, "how wilt thou say to thy brother".
