The Gospel of St. Matthew Chapter 7, vs 1-5 read: 1 “Do not judge, so that you won’t be judged. 2 For with the judgment you use, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but don’t notice the log in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and look, there’s a log in your eye? 5 Hypocrite! First take the log out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
What is the message here for our country, and for us as Americans? This is the question we must ask. This is the question we will study in this blog. In our endeavor to live His Word, and perform His will, this must be our purpose. Brothers and Sisters, we cannot be decieved by the devil to believe that this principles only apply to church, or some “spiritual realm” that is separate from this world in which we live everyday. I say to you that these worlds are entertwined. Each has an affect on the other. God has indeed blessed our country. Yet, to whom much is given, much shall be required.
What is it that’s required? Our thanksgiving to God…our service to Him, and to mankind. We are right to believe that God demands much from us. I believe we are right to believe we have a duty to those less fortunate. Yet, Christ explicitly forbids us from judging.
You call yourselves Christian, yet you call others lunatics. The Lord tells us that “Vengence is (His),” yet you feel justified to take matters into our own hands. Christ tells us to “do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” yet you disrespect other nations in arrogance.
Time and again, the Lord has rebuked you to stop. Yet, you continue down your path of destruction. When will you repent? God is waiting. God is watching. And His Watchman is on guard.
