About this episode

The episode explores the true meaning behind Jesus' phrase 'Don't judge' in Matthew 7:1-6, emphasizing grace and self-reflection.

"Don't judge" It's one of the most quoted phrases from the Bible... but is it actually what Jesus meant? In Matthew 7:1-6, Jesus doesn't tell his followers to ignore sin or stop using wisdom. Instead, he confronts a judgmental, self-righteous attitude that forgets the grace we've received from God. When we remember how much God has forgiven us, it changes the way we treat everyone else.
