"Who do you think you are to judge me?! Only God can judge." Ever heard this before? We so often hear that we are not to judge others, but is that really what the Bible says?

On this episode, we pose the question, "Is it wrong to judge?" Being 'judgey' is one of the most common complaints against Christians calling out lifestyles they disagree with, but is that objectively wrong to do? The Bible says a lot about judgement and we dig into the difference between righteous judgment and unrighteous judgment. Our hope is that as you listen, you'd have a clearer understanding of the role of "judging" in the Christian life and to give you the Scriptural support to stand behind your beliefs.

The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis. The 17:17 podcast seeks to teach the truth of God's Word in a way that is glorifying to God and easy to understand with the hope of furthering God's kingdom in Spirit and in Truth.
