When you hang out with vipers, you may get bitten. I hope you have an ample supply of anti-venom.

The Bible says that we should not judge each other in the respect that we should not say who is going to Hell and who is going to Heaven. But it also says that we should be discerning. If someone says that you are going here or there, they are not being hypocritical, they are being sinful and it should be pointed out to them so that they can repent of it. There is nothing wrong with asking questions as long as it is an honest attempt to gain the knowledge you lack as opposed to an attempt to mock or demean. Your pastor should know that and if he does not, he needs to be reminded.
Please feel free to ask questions here. I (and many others) will be more than happy to answer them as best we can.

I dont know what questions you have asked but, are you sure that they are judging you? Or could it be that you are taking what they say offensivly.
I struggled with that for a long time. Taking offense.
I am not against you having thoughtful questions at all. keep them coming. the bible says in proverbs to seek wisdom.
But you should also keep and open mind. Toughtful questions can bring about thoughtful answers.
feel free to contact me if you want me to explain.

Christians are the most judgemental people on this board. Christian Churches are also the most segregated places in America. Why is that? Be patient with the answerers on this board because many of the people here are teen agers and need to grow up.

Not sure of your answers, but the bible also tells us to correct one another ( tell them when they are wrong)
This is not judging when of course the evidence of a situation is obvious.
And we are even to bring another in front of the church if they will not correct the situation.
The issue with judging has to be taken into context with the entire bible

The bible says to show love, be kind, show mercy, he said to stay away from people who are sinners, unless your helping them with the word of God, and if your helping in ministering to them, you have to do it according to scripture. Not what you think, or how you feel,
Your bought with a price. He also said, do not let your work, be evil spoken of,
Romans 2:1 is the scripture your looking for.
Just because I set in my garage don't me a car
so just because people sit in Church that don't make them Christan's.

The Bible does not say not to judge one another. It says that you will be judged based on the same standard that you have judged others by. (paraphrase)
If you are going to quote the Bible, please get it right.

I am not aware of your thoughtful questions, but I agree with you. Christians are told in the bible to flee from sin, and the bible clearly states what God expects of us, but I think that healthy conversation is good!

Most preacher or Pastors will judge any number of people in their church because they know that they cannot answer the question posed. so they become harsh and hypocritical. if you need answers to a specific question please contact me.
