Judges » Not judging others
Stop judging, so that you will not be judged. As you judge, so you will be judged. As you measure, it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye? Do you not consider the beam in your own eye? read more.
Will you tell your brother, 'I will remove the speck from your eye' when there is a beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye. Then you can see to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.

Do not judge and you will not be judged. Do not condemn and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and it shall be given to you. You will receive a good measure. It will be pressed down, shaken together, running over and they will give it to you. For with the measure that you measure out it will be measured to you also. He told them an illustration: Can the blind guide the blind? Would they both fall into a pit? read more.
The disciple is not above his teacher. Every one will be like his teacher when he is fully trained. Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye? Yet you do not consider the beam in your own eye. How can you say to your brother: 'Let me remove the speck in your eye when you do not notice the beam in your own eye?' You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye. Then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.

When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. All nations will be gathered before him.

The King will say to those on his right hand: 'Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you took me in. I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.' The righteous will answer him: 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and dress you? When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?' The King will answer: 'To the extent that you did it to one of the least of my brothers, you did it to me.' Then he will tell those on his left: 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the ever-burning fire that is prepared for the Devil and his [fallen] angels. I was hungry and you did not feed me. I was thirsty and you did not give me drink. I was a stranger and you did not take me in. I was naked and you did not dress me. I was sick and in prison and you did not visit me.' They will also ask: 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty, a stranger or naked, sick or in prison and not minister to you?' The King will answer: 'To the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of my brothers, you did not do it to me.' These will go away into ever-burning fire (everlasting cutting off) (death) (total destruction) (doom) (punishment) (everlasting penalty), but the righteous to everlasting life.'

I watched as thrones were placed. The ANCIENT OF DAYS sat on one throne. His clothing was white as snow. His hair was like pure wool. His throne was like fiery flames, and the wheels on it were like burning fire. A fiery stream issued from before him. Thousands of thousands ministered to him. Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The judgment was set and the books were opened. I paid attention because of the sound of the great (boastful) words the horn spoke. I watched till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed. It was burned with fire. read more.
The dominion (authority) was taken away from the other beasts. Yet their lives were prolonged for a season. I saw in the night-visions someone like a SON OF MAN came with the clouds of heaven. He came to the Ancient of Days. They brought him near before him. He was given legal power and a kingdom. Out of his glory all the peoples, nations, and languages will serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away. His kingdom will not be destroyed. (Revelation 11:15) (Daniel 2:44) (Psalm 45:6)

I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it. From before him the earth and heaven fled away. There was found no place for them. I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God. The books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged according to the things written in the books, according to their works. The sea gave up the dead in it. Death and the grave delivered up the dead in them. Every man was judged according to his works. read more.
Death and the grave were hurled into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Whoever was not found written in the book of life was hurled (thrust) (thrown) into the lake of fire.

Judgment-seat » Of Christ
Why do you judge your brother? Why do you look down on your brother with contempt? We will all stand before the judgment seat of God (Theos).
Stumbling/slipping » Not casting stumblingblocks
Do not curse a deaf man. Do not place a stumbling block before the blind. You must deeply respect your God. I am Jehovah.
Concerning things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. If any man thinks he knows any thing, he really knows nothing, according to what he ought to know. But if any man loves God, God knows him. read more.
Concerning the eating of food offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one. There are those called gods in heaven or on earth. There are many gods and many lords. But to us there is but one God, the Father. All things come from him and we live for him. And there is one Lord Jesus Christ. All things were made through him and we were made through him. Not all people know this. Some eat food offered to idols and their conscience being weak is defiled. But food will not recommend us to God. If we do not eat we are not worse. If we eat we are not better. Be careful that this freedom does not become a stumbling block to those who are weak. If any man with knowledge sees you having a meal from an idol's temple, will the conscience of the weak one be emboldened (encouraged) to eat food offered to idols? And because of your knowledge the weak brother will perish. Christ died for him! When you sin against your brothers and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. If food makes my brother stumble I will eat no food at all so I do not make my brother stumble.

Let us not judge one another any more. Let no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean in itself. If someone thinks something is unclean it is unclean to him. If because of your food your brother is grieved, you do not walk in love. Do not allow what you eat to destroy the one for whom Christ died. Do not let the good you do be spoken of as evil. For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he that serves Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of by men. Let us follow after the things that make for peace, and things that are encouraging to one another. Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eats with offense. It is good neither to eat food, nor to drink wine, nor any thing that causes your brother to stumble or be offended and weakened. Do you have faith? Have it for yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in that thing that he allows. He that doubts is damned if he eats, because he eats not by faith. Whatever is not by faith is sin!

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient (profitable). All things are lawful for me, but all things do not build up (confirm) (strengthen). Let no one seek his own advantage, but that of the other [person]. Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without asking questions for the sake of conscience. read more.
For the earth and that which fills it is Jehovah's. (Psalm 24:1) If a nonbeliever invites you to a feast and you feel you must go eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience sake. But if any man says to you: This is offered in sacrifice to idols, do not eat for the sake of the one who said it and for conscience sake. Conscience, I say, not your own, but of the other: Yet why is my freedom judged by another man's conscience? For if I by grace am a partaker, why is evil spoken about me concerning that for which I give thanks? Whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do everything to the glory of God. Do not stumble or offend (do not lead into sin), neither to the Jews, nor to the nations, nor to the congregation of God. Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own good, but the good of many, that they may be saved.

He commanded us to preach to the people. We testify that he was ordained by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead.
I solemnly charge you in the sight (presence) of God, and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:
Do not judge anything before the time. Wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and make apparent the counsels of the hearts. Then each man's praise will come from God.
All nations will be gathered before him. He will then separate them one from another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
The Father does not judge any man for he has given all judgment to the Son.
He has established a day (time) in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man [Jesus] whom he has ordained. Of that he gives proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead. (John 5:22) (Isaiah 2:4) (Acts 10:42)
This is in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my good news, by Jesus Christ.
Why do you judge your brother? Why do you look down on your brother with contempt? We will all stand before the judgment seat of God (Theos).
They will give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
