Today’s Takeaways
Judging others and failing to examine yourself is a strong temptation for religious people.
External practice does not equal internal purity.
God’s standard of judgement is perfection.
The Gospel reveals that we have a Savior.
The gospel is not: judgment is gone.
The gospel is: Jesus takes our judgment.
All judgment will be subject to the gospel.
