If you continue to read, you will find that it later states, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes off thorns, or figs off thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit" (the same chapter beginning at verse 15). The lesson for you to learn is: Read all of the chapter, and take a look at John 7:24, where Jesus also states, "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment" (hence why I stated "Judging Christians? How am I judging acclaimed Christians if what I say is true? Judging is when you determine something about a person off of no basis but off of some inkling or appearance.") Your move.[spoiler]P.S., I see you have a KJV preference. Any reason why?[/spoiler]

  • I'm familiar with that verse as well. The point still remains that you claiming you are able to judge other self proclaimed Christians as hypocritical, is hypocritical. I just grabbed the verse. Didn't pay attention to the version.

    Excuse me, but Jesus instructed his disciples to discern between them that are truly sheep and them that are ravening wolves hidden in sheep's clothing. How can an acclaimed Christian distinguish between the two without being bias or act as a bigot? Answer: Read the Bible, and see whether what they do lines up with what is said. Metaphorically, we are to discern between those that are true and those that are untrue Christians. Judging between the two is not a matter of personal preference or one's own opinion, but only off of the fact that if what they do (their fruit) doesn't line up with scripture (the tree). If what is stated about an individual is true and evidential, the conclusion is justified.
