"Judge not, that you be not judged." It’s one of the most quoted verses in the Bible — and one of the most misunderstood.
In this full sermon from Matthew 7:1–6, Dr. Adrian Rogers unpacks what Jesus actually meant when He said those words. He wasn’t telling His followers to abandon all discernment or pretend sin doesn’t exist. He was warning against something far more specific: hypocritical, self-righteous condemnation.
In this message you’ll learn:
— What Jesus actually meant by "judge not" — and what He didn’t mean
— The difference between righteous discernment and hypocritical condemnation
— How insecurity, pride, and ignorance drive us to judge others unfairly
— Why you don’t have the authority to condemn someone you don’t have the power to redeem
— What happens when the yardstick you use on others comes back around on you
Key teaching: "It is the hypocritical that are hyper-critical." — Adrian Rogers
