Yes indeed -- that is a very human tendency that does NOT reflect Christ. We're told not to judge (pass a sentence on people) but to love. Christ will do the sentencing, though he prefers that people come to him for forgiveness. The job of Christians is NOT to point fingers!
Note: I don't think Christians are exceptionally judgmental -- it's just that it's really noticeable when you meet one who IS, because they are under orders *not* to be! Plenty of people of other faiths, or of no faiths, are plenty quick to judge -- and also to make sweeping generalizations about all Christians!

The answer to that would be, Does the one whom they follow point fingers? If they do, then no, theyre spirit is not betraying. But if the one whom they claim to follow does not point fingers, and teaches to love and not to judge, then YES the spirit has betrayed or contradicts the one whom they claim to follow. Love and light. Blessed B.

And what is pointing fingers? I think we all do that. We all are in the same boat. God's Word is the same for all of us. We all need Lord God Jesus for our salvation. We all betray Jesus in a way, but He saves us when we ask Him to be our Lord and Savior.

Some people genuienly want to help you but the don't realize they come off judgemental and self rightious....and they might strike a nerve putting you on defense....Then again I'm sure some people like being judgemental....Keep the glass half full though

yes in a way.
but remember christians are not perfect either, all in different stages of growth and developent of christians.
christians often point fingers and they will have to give account of it, same as everybody else.

Yes, it does it makes them look like Judas Iscariot, the guy who betrayed their "Savior". It makes them all traitors.
Blessed Be.

Yes.
It's funny, my biggest arguement with Christians is that their faith teaches them not to judge, yet they are the first to pass judgement.

Your question sounds like a case of a christian who allows flesh to take over.
We all sin and fall short...

I don't think so unless they are being hypocritical in what they are doing. You need to use your punctuation mark better!
