How not to judge
""Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged. "And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own? How can you think of saying to your friend, 'Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,' when you can't see past the log in your own eye? Hypocrite!

Fix your sin first
First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend's eye.

How to judge correctly

Don't assume
"Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish."
Proverbs 18:13 NLT

"Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church."

Jesus judges on actions "When you give to someone in need, don't do as the hypocrites do-blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get."
Matthew 6:2 NLT

""When you pray, don't be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get."
Matthew 6:5 NLT

""And when you fast, don't make it obvious, as the hypocrites do, for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting. I tell you the truth, that is the only reward they will ever get." Matthew 6:16 NLT

Judge by the fruit Matthew 7:15-20 NLT
""Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. A good tree can't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can't produce good fruit. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions."

Why judge?
Proverbs 27:17
English Standard Version
Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.

Judge for accountability, growth & and all Gods wisdom.
"Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God." Acts 20:26-27 NKJV

2 Timothy 3:16 NIV
