One of the most quoted—and most misunderstood—statements Jesus ever made is, “Judge not, that you be not judged.” It’s often used as a conversation-stopper, a way to avoid moral accountability, or even to suggest that Christians should never call out wrongdoing. But when we read Jesus’ words in context, a very different picture emerges.

In this episode, we’ll look closely at what Christ actually teaches in Matthew chapter 7. Far from abolishing moral discernment, Jesus warns against hypocrisy, pride, and rash judgment, while still calling his followers to truth, humility, and loving correction. The goal is not condemnation, but conversion—not silence in the face of sin, but charity rooted in truth.
