We cannot condemn

SUMMARY: Believers should not despise or judge those who do not share their beliefs. Jesus was understanding and generous with people who lacked faith or had different beliefs. We should be careful not to have a condemning attitude towards those we want to share the Gospel with, and show them how valuable they are to God and to us. Our mission is to introduce them to the Savior and make them feel loved by God. Our relationship with God can satisfy our deepest longings at no cost.

God is no respecter of persons. Believers should not despise those who do not believe, or think that because they do not believe they have less value as human beings. The same happens with those who belong to other religions or belief systems . In our eagerness for other people to know about Christ, sometimes we are not very careful and we use expressions that can offend or confuse, and therefore alienate those we want to reach from Christianity.

Although it is true that Jesus harshly lashed out at the Pharisees - who did believe in precisely the same God - for their fanatical, erroneous, intolerant and often inconsistent behavior, he was nevertheless very understanding and generous with people who lack faith, with different beliefs or with a life not exactly recommended, they approached him or sought him out trying to satisfy some need. The biblical passage is known in which a woman, caught in adultery, was brought before him by those who tried to stone her according to the law of Moses.

Better to restore than to condemn
Believers should have an attitude of grace and mercy towards those who have fallen. Instead of condemning them, we should help restore them with a spirit of meekness and remember our own imperfections.
