budaatum: You can't, but your works can and do speak for you Remember The Law, "By their Fruits...?"! budaatum: You used the word "those" while I actually said "Another" and I Had The Most Supreme Judge in Mind when I said "Another". But by The Law of Proverbs 27:2, Other Reasonable men can also Judge you and your works too! |

Dtruthspeaker: But those "reasonable men" would not have sufficient information if I obeyed Matthew 6:1-4, and are likely to go about passing false judgements! |

MrPresident1: Goes to show that belief has nothing to do with righteousness. An example would be an atheist who lives a God filled life, and the orangutan. www.nairaland.com/attachments/11039027_psx20200212120340_jpegb63adb5ff044a1c031e3dde7d11e9cd7 1 Like 1 Share |

budaatum: Wow, bad Bible! Matthew 6:1-4 is about "Giving" not about "Judges and Judgement", thus, you are off target by kilometres. The Bible has already provided how a judgement must be arrived at and what a Judge Must Do! Eg Zechariah 7:9 "Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother: 10 And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart". |

Dtruthspeaker: Do you see what you did there? I'll put it to you that you must be aware that your interpretation required some effort on ones part to see what it is you meant as opposed to passing a judgement of righteousness on myself and wrongeousness on you. "Let someone else praise you" is not "Wow, bad Bible" when you interpret it as "Other Reasonable men can also Judge you and your works too", but when buda applies the same sort of reasoning to infer they might not have sufficient information to judge if one "Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them", its "off target by kilometres". Is it not true ("a law", in your lingo perhaps), that those from whom the things one does is hidden can not be the judge of one's righteousness? Their judgement should at least be suspected, don't you think? Especially when they pass judgement on what they have not first sought to understand? Dtruthspeaker: This is unacceptable! "True judgement" and "shew mercy and compassions", despite the plural, is woolly and almost meaningless and unspecific, unlike God who is much clearer to those who see, is my own judgement of the verses you quoted. Let us be tasked with finding more verses about "how a judgement must be arrived at" is what Righteousness orders, for the education of buda, at least. There must be laws that say one must at least seek to understand before judging. That said. Zechariah 7 is noted by buda. |

budaatum: No sir, at the highlighted, the only interpretation I said about passing Judgement On One Ownself whether you or I or anyone else is simply "Do Not Do It"! As The Law hath Said. And you got it. budaatum: Mathew 6:1-4 is about "Giving" and not directly about "Judges and Judgement" which was the issue when you raised up Mathew 6:1-4. "budaatum: Who are those who "Shall and Must Judge Thee and Thy Works"? budaatum: A Good Judgment is Given and Based on A Specific Issue Relating to "Things Seen' and "Things, Seen to be Hidden". And it is only arrived at AFTER understanding has been sought and obtained through questions having FIRST being asked ("Cross-examination" )! |
