Areas Christians Should Judge
We are to rightly judge potential Elders/Pastors
and Deacons to see if they
measure up to the qualifications
given in the Scripture (1
Timothy 3:1-13; Titus 1:5-9).
This means that we have to discern or judge others
by God's standards in order to be obedient to God's Word.

Areas Christians Should JudgeWe are told in 1 Thessalonians 5:14 to "admonish the
unruly.“
In verse 15, we are told to "see to it that no one repays another with evil for evil." So it is clear that we as believers have to be discerning about other believers.
This doesn't mean that we are to go around looking for every little speck or flaw, but that when we see people doing things that are clearly unbiblical then we are
to speak up and say something.

sight of God.
We are also told to judge (scrutinize) ourselves
before we partake of the Lord's Supper to see if
our spiritual condition is correct (1 Corinthians
11:31).

responsibility of eternally judging anyone.

Conclusion
Christians cannot correctly weigh action, motives,
opportunities, nor know all things about any individual:
God alone is capable to do so.
