Do Not Pass Judgment On One Another

8 For, if we live, our life is for the Master, and, if we die, our death is for the Master. Whether, then, we live or die we belong to the Master. 9 The very purpose for which Christ died and came back to life was this--that he might be Lord over both the dead and the living. 10 I would ask the one man 'Why do you judge your Brother?' And I would ask the other 'Why do you despise your Brother?' For we shall all stand before the Bar of God.
