It Takes a Perfect Person to be a Perfect Judge

“There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another? (James 4: 12)

There is only one perfect person. That perfect person is neither you nor me. He is the one lawgiver. He is able to save or destroy. That one lawgiver is Christ Jesus, the perfect Son of God. He alone has the ability and right to judge.

I read somewhere, “There is so much good in the worst of us and so much bad in the best of us that it hardly behooves any of us to say anything bad about the rest of us.”

You and I have not been appointed of God to judge, ridicule, belittle and spread bad words about our fellow human beings. Jesus said that, “every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.” (Matthew 12:36)
