Poem Commentary

"Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Judged"  That is what Jesus said. . .We should take heed. . .

"Judging Christians"

Judging Christians


You asked, "Are you a Christian?"

That's, what I heard you say

According to "Jesus" I am

And He'll lead the way . . .


You think I sin, do you?

You say, I am not, all that . . .

Are you the judging committee

Do you sit now, where God sat? 


Are you at his "Mighty Throne"

Because you are so very pure

So sure, you don't need to atone

You must be perfect, to the core 


It's the heart, that Jesus sees

He knows what we have, inside

He knows the hurts and the love

And its there . . . He does abide 


So don't you judge me, today

For God is capable of that

I am not perfect, in any way

Ya know, Satan looks for combat 


No, I don't care what you think

Yet, I will pray for understanding

Jesus is coming, He's on the brink

I anticipate everyday, His landing 


I have no fear of His return

For, He knows I tried my best

Lessons in life, we all must learn

And its He, that gives the test 


So, while you are watching me

And, questioning . . My walk

Look at yourself, what do you see

What gives you cause to talk? 


I will tell you though, what I'll do

I will keep you in my prayers. . .

And when, each new day is through

I'll pray that God listens, and hears!

I LIKED THIS ONE JIKYPTAL. I AGREE IT IS NOT FOR US TO JUDGE, BUT FOR GOD TO JUDGE ACCORDING TO HIS WORD. IT'S UP TO HIM. IT'S SAD TO SAY THAT TOO MANY CHRISTIANS FALL INTO THE WAY OF JUDGING OTHERS HARSHLY. ANY GROWTH IN THE LORD THAT WE HAVE, IS NOT BECAUSE OF OUR GOODNESS OR EFFORTS. WE HAVE NO GOODNESS EXCEPT FOR CHRIST'S GRACE. THAT'S WHY WE STUDY THE BIBLE TO SEE WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO. IF WE FOLLOW HIS TEACHINGS, WHICH IS ONLY BY HIS GRACE, WE WILL BE CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF CHRIST.

I think what you wrote was very true. I too have been the victim of judgment from christians. I think that is why I believe in God but will not go to church.

I just loved this. It seems that people are always judging Christians and we're the first ones to admit we're sinners, My minister says that should always make us more circumspect because at our first infraction people will say,"You're a Christian so that is how you people act." You're poem says it all. I'll keep this in mind.
