NO
A Christian spends absolutely no time usurping the act of judgment. That is entirely under God's jurisdiction.
Any one calling them self a Christian, who makes the claim that another human is going to hell is not a Christian.
These people here that say things like this are sorely in need of serious help. Even Jesus never said to anyone "you are going to hell". Why? Because he knows that everyone that is breathing can decide to turn away from sin and gain everlasting life.
What would be helpful, is if people could learn to think before they speak. I think that a lot of the drama going on here is a result of shoot from the hip comments.

I disagree... its ot the judging that is the problem... it is the preaching i cannot stand.
I think they mean well though, its their way of "helping"... by bringing more people to their faith... but it annoys more than helps, and this they need to understand. If someone wants to convert, then they will do so in their own time. They wont simply "convert" on their own doorstep, after a half an hour speech on how God created the earth and its creatures to live in happiness under his rule, so on and so forth...
If someone wishes to convert, they will get their "call". Patience is a virtue.

I agree, I am a Christian and although I try not to judge people, I do need to spend more time helping others.

Yup. I'm a pastor, and I'm guilty of this too.
Of course, this is not only true of christians, but athiests and agnostics and Hindus and Muslims and Jews and Wiccans and everyone, really.
We should all spend less time judging and more time speaking in love and acting in compassion.

Not the Christians I know. We spend an unusual amount of time finding ways to give, and learning that we have no authority to judge.
Maybe the ones you know only say they are Christians and haven't actually devoted their lives to Christ.

Do your research Christians are the most giving people in the world. The word charity is a Christian word meaning love for all.

Online they sure do. The one's I know personally in the real world don't act like I see a lot of Christians here act. I'm sure some in here would call them false Christians lol

I agree 90%. I've met a LOT of really judgmental Christians... but I've also met my share of others who are not.
The thing is, humans do that. We need to judge others or we would have no opinions.

Yes. As well as too much time praying instead of helping.

yes. Is not like like we have to invent anything to help, everything has been done already. Jesus gave his life for us, and He has giving us everything we need, now is all about believing in Him who rescue us.
