Judgments: Rash or Righteous (Lou Priolo)
$6.29“Judge not, lest you be judged” is perhaps the most frequently quoted verse of the Bible: even though people have no idea what it means. Most of those who quote it entirely miss the point. The Bible does not forbid making judgments. On the contrary, a wise Christians shows a growing and improving discernment that knows how to judge situations, and even people, according to God’s Word.
In this booklet, Lou Priolo tackles this difficult issue, making the distinction between rash and sinful judgments, and righteous, godly ones. You can learn how to “judge”, using sound standards from God’s Word, rather than your own.
Lou provides a survey of when it is and isn’t lawful for believers to make judgments. He also identifies eight different forms of rash judgments and then offers nine guidelines for replacing snap judgments with righteous judgments.
