“Judge not.”
No Biblical phrase has been more overused (or abused). Was Jesus actually saying we should have no discernment? What actually DID He mean and how do we steer clear of breaking His commandment?
Here are the 8 signs of judgmentalism and how we overcome it in our own lives:
FEAR is the biggest enemy to your future.
It comes in many forms, mainly having to do with your future: failure, rejection, lack, or death (to name a few). Abram was mighty in battle yet his deepest fear was not having a successor.
How will you overcome the fears that limit you?

People live with pain. Emotional pain can be greater than physical pain.
Words change your destiny. Look at David’s “three giants” and how he used words to overcome them:

Temptation is real. It is bigger than me, but not bigger than Christ. He faced every temptation I do, yet was never defeated.
