Everyone has a problem with being judgemental....its human! Thats the reason why God has to tell us not to judge lest we be judged ourselves the same way.
Good advice: Dont go into a church looking at the people. People will always let you down. THey are human. Jesus is your example. Churches are full of hurting people and hurt people will hurt other people sometime or another. There is no perfect church. Jesus came for the lost and the needy and the hurting and the poor. Those are the very people that you will find in churches. Some are so heavenly good, they are no earthly good and others non commital. Every person has a different level of maturity so one cannot judge anyone or even expect them to be at the level of growth where one is..
One never arrives. Not even the best pastor in the world will arrive to utmost perfection. Some people act that way but its a front to cover what really goes on. It is impossible. We are all corrupted and fall short of the glory of God because of sin. The only thing we can do is to try not to repeat the sin. Repentence means to confess and never go back to the same sin again.
We have to be sober minded and remember that we really need God more than ever and He will help us to overcome the bad things and to renew our minds and to guard our hearts and to grow more like him and this will take and absolute life time to do!
Dont let questions like you are asking concern you. Look at Jesus all the time and take your eyes off people. THey all have to learn this very lesson too. Its that simple!

I pray that I am not judgmental, and yes, I have met Christians that aren't - speaking the truth in love, by the way is different then condemning the person. However it seems to me you are being exactly what you say that we do. That never ceases to amaze me. You just judge a whole group of people for some,

There is no such thing as a non-denominational Christians.
All Christians will like to live in a delusion that they are the true Christians and therefore they are above the rest which are denominations of Christianity.
However, the fact is, unless Jesus actually declare which one is his true disciples, they are but a denomination of Christianity.
Therefore, by the fact they call themselves "non-denominational" Christians, they are already passing judgement by judging themselves as the true christians and others to be false.

I know what you mean, but for the most part I haven't seen it in the non-denominationals. I think they'd be that way even if they didn't believe in God! Remember? They were the snobs in school! They just grew up and found something to use as their weapon for being that way.
I'm totally a Christian. I'm not knowing real Christianity. I'm just knocking the way that some people act, like they're so much better than everybody else. But like I said. Didn't we grow up with those same people?

Everyone IS judgemental even ALL Christians, because they are HUMAN. If they say they aren't judgemental, they are lieing.
What is the big deal anyway?, how does it affect you personally?. Or is this yet another Christian bashing thread?.
And the truth is, the bible does not tell Christians not to judge, full stop . It tells Christians not to judge on appearance etc and to judge others with righteous judgement. This means that if a person has sinned, by cheating, lieing, stealing etc etc and it is MORALLY wrong, then a Christian has the right to point it out and it is not being judgemental.

In my opinion, non-denominational Christians (or any Christians) should not be judgmental.
I am a non-denominational Christian. It is not my place to determine who is or is not saved. God's grace is the only thing we have. The Bible tells us what He expects from us. I am not qualified to judge another saying you are or are not doing the right thing.

I have been judged all my life, and i am far more harsh on Christians than Jews Musilums Hindus Bhuddists and ALL others including Atheists.
People should be Happier we just act as a judge and not Jury and Exacutioner.

I have met many non-denominational Christians that are not judgmental.
You must be thinking about those heathen atheists.

maybe they don't know they are being judgmental, but I have never met any non-denominational protestant who is not judgmental.
