Sermon on the Mount: Our Judgments

Speaker: Pastor Angela Luk

Scripture: Matthew 7:1-5

Central Idea: To judge righteously begins with a right view of ourselves and God.

Two Ways of Judgment

1. Existential Judgment (Judging Another Person’s Heart)

2. Eschatological Judgment (Judging Another Person’s Final Destination)

Judging with Integrity

For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

—Matthew 7:2 (NIV)

3 Questions for Self-Examination

1. Where am I failing to live up to the standard I expect from others? (Failure)

2. How do I currently benefit from the patience and grace of God (and others)? (Forgiveness)

3. Who in my life can help me see some of my blind spots? (Friendship)
