How will the religious right explain to Jesus that they didn't understand?

What He meant when He said "Judge not lest ye be judged" when He returns???They have alot to answer for, especially not teaching this to their children. I just can't believe they are such haters.--Jesus weeps

    Thats true... i believe Jesus was simply a historical figure and that he would be absolutely appalled to learn of the atrocities that have been committed in his name.

    If you were in the dark and I told you to be care-full not to walk off the end of the pier you were unknowingly headed toward, would that be "judging" you?

    The Bible does not say absolutely "do not judge" It says "do not judge , LEST YOU BE JUDGED"

    I welcome others to judge my life based on my actions. How much faster could I change for the better if someone cared enough to point out my fault? Even if they did it with spite and I recognize that it is true, it is to my benefit to hear it!

    However, I will admit that many people and not just Christians, Judge what people are thinking and feeling - these I try not to do because I can't read minds. Yet even if I fail, Jesus, whom you believe is so unloving as to condemn me at the end, actually loves us both. I am secure in his love for me because he looks at the heart and He knows that I desire to do what is right and follow him. But for you I am concerned, are you not judging my heart - the very thing that you despise? I ask this because your question seems to assume that all Christians are haters.

    You see, I am not judging your heart, that is God's job, I am judging you actions - you are doing what you hate.

    All i can say is pray for them. With the measure you use it will be measured unto you. Not one man on earth has the right to judge the heart of another man. Now we are commanded to teach and exhort, and rebuke. Tons of scripture teaches us to be accountable for one another. We are after all the body of Christ. But many because they refuse some part of the bible or another miss the whole truth of God's word. And as you'll read below that will be Gods reply.

    Source(s): " 21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

    Yep!...I know what you mean!...I can't believe there are so many GOD HATERS Either!....But JESUS Prepared His Followers for This!...Read (Matt. 10: 22), (Acts 4: 12), (Psalms 14: 1), ...as you research the Word Of GOD, you will see that GOD wants his people to EVALUATE, NOT JUDGE!...Example, you as a parent evaluate who you want your children to associate with that will do them GOOD Instead of HARM!....Same way with Spiritual Things Of GOD For His Servants!.......(2 Cor. 6: 14-16)......Ps. Don't Allow The Heathen To Deceive you, What GOD Says Holds GREAT CREDENCE WITH HIM, NOT MAN!....GOD'S WORD WILL ALLWAYS PREVAIL!!...Hint!---- Try The spirit by the spirit and see if it's of GOD!. (1 John 4: 1)......
