I can’t judge you for anything. After reading through the entire Bible this year, I find that I can find a law that forbids almost everything that a man and woman can think, do, say, or conceptualize.

So, if I’m judging you for something you do that I don’t do, I’m sure that I’m doing something forbidden that you aren’t doing, making me as guilty as you or anyone else on the face of the earth. I also read the penalty for all is the same.

So, I have come to some conclusions for myself. Not for my wife, not for my kids, not for my friends. For me.

We are to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling.

So,

Here is my conclusion.

Fear God as do my best.
When I fall short of the mark show myself grace.
When you feel you’ve fallen short of the mark, point you to grace.
Work hard to stay away from all judgement.
Believe, adore, and imitate Christ as best I can in this flesh.
Be a disciplined person by disciplining my body and try to discipline my mind.

Lastly, since it appears that I can find a law against everything but one thing, focus on that one thing because against such there is no law.

LOVE

There is no law against love.

Love God and love my neighbor as I love myself.

I’m grateful for another beautiful day!
