BOOMERANG JUDGMENT

SEPT. 17, 2012

Dear One,
     What might be right for one person might not be right for others.
     What is believed as being a blessing for one person might not be a blessing for another.
     Everyone has different ideas, different beliefs, different standards and different family dynamics.  What is perfect for you might be imperfect for somebody in some remote area of the world.
     Family mores differ, religious laws differ and national standards differ.  That's why judging others is inappropriate for My children.  When you judge a person because of his actions, you must realize that according to his heredity and environment he might be measured as being perfect by his peers.  That's why Paul said that you must not judge a person because he eats meat or because he doesn't eat meat or because he observes certain religious days.  Paul knew about grace and he encouraged My children to respect the beliefs of others, thus extending grace to them. 
     Because of nationality differences, there are different standards of conduct according to where you live and different beliefs even in different areas of the same towns in which you live.   If you were to judge all of them by your beliefs and standards, you would constantly be judged by others, also, because I said to judge not so that you will not be judged
     Judging should be serious business to My children, an activity in which you never want to engage unless you want to be judged by others.
     Forgiveness is the opposite of judging.  Jesus taught that if people wrong you that you should forgive them seventy times seven, even in one day.
     You should forgive those who have different beliefs, different standards, different mores and different ideas than yours.  They may be being perfectly obedient to their teaching, their customs and their religious tenets.
     Rather than judging them, practice loving them.  Love is the standard that I want you to set with all My children, loving them regardless of their beliefs, their customs, their ideas and their religious laws.  When that happens in the lives of all of My children, then your world will be peaceful, joyful, full of grace and with love abounding.  Then My kingdom will have come on earth as it is in My heaven.
                                                                         Love, God
