Episode 69 -- Spiritual Combat c43.1 -- Our Tendency to Rash Judgement


Listen Later

What do we do with our tendency to judge others rashly?

The devil tries to get us to be immoderate in our mortifications. He wants to distract us from what is even more meritorious in the sight of God:

  1. desires of sharing in heavenly glory
  • desiring to serve Christ like a soldier
  • self-contempt of false, independent self
  • disdain of the empty promises of the world
  • silence and retirement
  • humility
  • charity for all men
  • patient endurance of the greatest injuries
  • rendering good for evil
  • avoiding smallest faults
