on a side note... they're also not supposed to judge, but leave that to god, yet they still judge...

so why do you think that is?


i personally think it's because somewhere they have their doubts and they need to convert otherp eople for their own peace of mind, and to confirm their belief.... of course that's not the only reason i think they do it... but i believe that plays a heavy part on it.
Iam sorry but I dont think your statment is true, even tho I think
your statement was a little confusing, I dont say that to put you
down, iam just not sure I know what the heart of your qustion really is. But I can only speak for my self, if some one sins aganst
me I forgive them because christ has forgiven me. even tho it is not always easy. when my ex wife sinned aganst me by sleeping
with another man and then marrying him, at first I was angry as I had a right to, just as God was angry with man when he sinned
aganst him. But becuse of Gods love He chose to forgive man, and made a way were mans sins could be forgiven through Christ.
all the chritians I know hold to this same out look on life and forgiveness. Now as for judging Iam not sure what it is that you are driving at, what specific judgements are we talking about here?
what is it that we are judging?
