Stop Judging Others – The Impact



1 “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 
2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 
4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 

5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

Matthew 7. 1 - 5


Everyone serves God differently and that's ok that's what makes us unique, you read the Bible from a hard copy, people use an app so what? People are sleeping around in the lusts of fornication while someone like me and you who are keeping ourselves to marriage so what? You go to church some people watch sermons from online streaming so what? You're in your churches youth group, choir or catering group while others go home and are not active in their church so what? Everyone's journey is different, this is a marathon to salvation not a sprint of the Pharisees and perfect believers. Lets come of our high horses, holier than though stand point and self righteous ways and stop judging others! Stop judging the celebrity in a scandal, lets stop looking at close ones who indulge in sin and lets stop coming for those whose lifestyles goes against the Bible.

Where is the grace? Where is the patience? Where is the love? Why are we quick to condemn? Why do we like to "cancel" others? Yh I have time today because us Christians should not be partaking in canceling someone. Cancelling culture is not of God and goes against God and the Christian DNA. We are  ALL short of God's grace and His mercy why should someone's life be in disarray till they die and have their careers destroyed because they made a mistake? Yes the Bible says don't spare the rod Proverbs 13: 24. To those who don't know what this verse means, it simply means that you don't spare someone from accountability or punishment. If someone commits a crime they should be punished by the law, if you doing things in the dark then it'll come to light as mentioned in Luke 12:3, I'm not here justifying anyone;s wrong doing as every action will have reaction, what we put in, we will get out.  With what's going on social media with those being exposed for past crimes/ actions they made and with grime artist Wiley, let's have mercy and grace when someone is the wrong, lets correct and not condemn the same way we gossip and stone other's lets have the same energy in praying for them. 

As someone who struggles with not judging people and someone who in my past was quick to cancel people, I learnt that the same way I judge and canceled people the same way God will give me that judgment as it says in Matthew 7 1-3. God gives us a chance to repent, God gave us redemption and God can cancel us but He does not, why didn't he cancel Adam and Eve when they ate the apple? Why didn't God cancel David, Moses or Solomon? Because everyday we are alive is a day to unlearn, a day to change, a day to repent. A leopard can change it's spots, a cheater is not always a cheater and a criminal will not always be a criminal. Read your Bible from front to cover, from Genesis to Revelations is all rags to riches stories, the Holy book is all about people having a 2nd to a million chances and people changing from their past. So let's stop judging, stop cancelling and lets stop condemning because it's not what Christianity is about.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch neme...

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ” Matthew 6:33 Disclaimer: What I’m about to talk will be sensitive as talking about spiritual priorities will offend some as it can be a touchy subject; this blog is to educate, help and inspire other Christians to put God first in everything. As someone who didn’t have any spiritual priorities over 3 years ago I have no right to judge or shade anyone, which is not my purpose or aim of this piece. The title must’ve got heads spinning and this is what I intended to do, because like I do, I always point out what wrong goes on in the Christian community and give a solution. We Stan celebrities, and when I mean Stan, if you don’t know the term from the iconic Eminem song, I mean radically idolize celebrities such as Beyonce where her fan base goes to far as insulting people online who don’t like her music, to even take a...
