Judge not, lest you be judged


 

Luke 6:36 - 42 Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful. 

37  “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; 
38  give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” 
39  He also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit
40  A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher. 
41  Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 
42  How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.

Come in before you miss the banquet


                            Come the Banquet is Ready right now !

Luke 14:16-24  But he said to him, “A man once gave a great banquet and invited many. 

17  And at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’ 

18  But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. Please have me excused.’ 

19  And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them. Please have me excused.’ 

20  And another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’ 

21  So the servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ 

22  And the servant said, ‘Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ 

23  And the master said to the servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. 

24  For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.’”
