John 12:47

“I am not the one who will judge those who refuse to obey my teachings. I came to save the people of this world, not to be their judge.”

Like Jesus, we should not be judgmental. Do not judge people. Nang minsan, nagturo ang Panginoon at ang kanyang grupo sa isang bayan at ayaw silang pakinggan. Sabi ng mga disciples, “Lord, papaulanan na ba namin ng apoy ang barangay 58 na yan?” Sabi naman ni Lord, “Sobra kayong hot. Huwag. Hayaan nyo lang. Kung ayaw kayong pakinggan, move to the next town. Marami namang gustong makinig sa inyo e.” Nagkaroon lang ng konting kapangyarihan yung mga disciples gusto nang paulanan ng apoy yung ayaw makinig (tingnan ang Lucas 9:52-56).

Marami sa ating ganyan. Pag mayroon tayong kapatid, pinsan, o hipag na ayaw umattend ng Bible study o Sunday school, gusto nating paulanan sila ng apoy, kino-condemn-condemn na natin sila. Sabi mismo ng Panginoon na he does not judge people because he came not to judge but to save people. Ganun din dapat tayo. Overzealous evangelists and soul-winners could be judgmental. That’s why they never win anybody for the Lord. Kasi nakakainisan sila.

People flock to Jesus so people should flock to Jesus’ followers as well. Kung ang Panginoon naibigan ng mga tao, dapat kaibig-ibig din ang mga nagsasabing nananalig sila sa Panginoon. Kaibig-ibig tayo not in tolerating sin, not in jeopardizing our spirituality, not in compromising our high spiritual standards, but just in being non-judgmental.
