1831.—Judging Others. Matt. 7: 1.

"Judge not that ye be not judged." Are we judging when we know a fact to say so? or when we only think it to be so from all appearances, and then repeat it as a fact? E. M. H.

Judging does not pertain to facts, but persons. We have the right to say that an act of stealing is wrong; but the judging of the man who did it does not rest with us. The judging prohibited by Christ pertains to person, not act. "Condemn not and ye shall not be condemned." Say the act is wrong if need be, win men from the wrong deeds, but leave the condemnation to Him to whom it belongs.
