So don't make judgments about anyone ahead of time - before the Lord returns. For he will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. The Lord will give to each one whatever praise is due (1 Corinthians 4:5)
Wow! I know that I can't judge people, but with this verse I realize more of why. It's because people here, they aren't necessarily who they are. There are things that they might say or do as a result of a world fallen-and not yet restored to Christ. If love hopes, then I believe that it sees the best in people- even if it's not fleshed out yet.
God still might be transforming certain areas of their hearts and therefore I do not see a person as they TRULY are and have no place to judge them. For soon we will be as Christ. I choose to see Christ in them.
Father, help us to see people as you see them.
