To those who say "Judge not, lest ye be judged": What are your standards FOR?
Don't you go by YOUR standards to make judgments on issues, events, people? How do you make a judment as to what or who is right or wrong? Or will you claim to HAVE no standards? THAT certsinly would be foolish.
A lot of "parrotheads" try to steal these Words of our Lord and try to use them like a child handling a "sword". (no pun intended). '
"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword" Heb 4:12.
"Judge not lest ye be judged, judge not lest ye be judged", they say. Willfully ignoring the REAL meaning of the WHOLE context from which these Words come.
The context of this passage is ACTUALLY teaching Christians TO judge (rightiously, that is, according to His Word).
For the true Christian; God's Word is the standard for ALL things pertaining to life and Godliness.
