Building on the Basics, Week 52: Judgment – Prepare For It (Part 3)

You’ve probably heard someone say, “You can’t judge.” We know that's what Jesus said and people often use that verse as a way of justifying their right to live however they want. But, is that really what Jesus meant? Is it possible that followers of Jesus are actually supposed to make some judgments?  A basic understanding of God’s judgment, when and how and why, is crucial for a proper understanding of God and our relationship with Him. We’ve spent the last two sessions in Jude looking at three examples of God’s judgment from the Old Testament.  Learning from those judgments in the past, as we’re going to see today, is important for our present lives and the need for us to judge what others are teaching us.
