Pastor Seth unpacks Matthew 7 and clarifies that Jesus is not forbidding discernment, but condemning a judgmental spirit. We are called to judge rightly—with humility, self-examination, and a heart for restoration—rather than with pride, harshness, or hypocrisy. Before addressing the “speck” in someone else’s eye, we must first confront the “plank” in our own by fixing our eyes on Jesus. The goal is not condemnation but rescue, not courtroom verdicts but hospital healing—reflecting Christ, who came full of grace and truth to save, not to condemn.
