Sin

I feel the need to put out a little wee reminder on sinning.

And the act of calling people out on their sins.

And the act of judging people.

And the act of publicly cursing people.

These are money!

Yesterday, I was reading a social media post.

It was posted by a girl that I follow.

I have never met her, but have messaged back and forth with her.

Little background:

She is divorced with three children.

She is pregnant with the child of the man she is dating.

Unexpected.

Isn't most of life?!

She prefaced her words by saying that she feared ridicule, judgement and abandonment when she announced that she was pregnant.

I know those fears well.

Very, very well.

Then, I read the comments.

Most of them were loving, supportive, kind and full of encouragement.

But you've always got those comments by people who feel that they are in a position (a Godly position) to judge, and to judge publicly and to judge harshly.

"Sin is sin. You're sinning."

Allow me, for a moment, to remind people that those comments are ALSO sinning.

Small sins.

Big sins.

There really is no such thing as a big sin and a small sin.

It's all sin.

You are not better than the person you deem as a sinner.

Period.

The worth of the judger is NO greater than the worth of the sinner.

We have been told to LOVE.

Loving does not include judging.

Carry on.
