Luke 6:37
“Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven.”

This is not some threat by a God who is waiting to slam you. This is simple truth. Jesus says that when you judge someone…you separate yourself from him or her. When you condemn…you separate yourself from the other. You choose to isolate yourself…elevate yourself. When you forgive…you bring yourself in union with all. Jesus showed us that the kingdom of God is about unity. There are no divisions…no borders…no nations…in the kingdom of God. Mercy, forgiveness and compassion are the keys to the kingdom. We receive it from Christ. Will we pass it on? Ask for the grace to do so.
