Not to judge, but…
Written by Mark Van Steenwyk : June 3, 2005
I can’t tell you how often, in blog comments or forum postings, the number of times I’ve read someone start with the words "Not to judge…" or "Its not for me to judge" or some variation…only to proceed in judgement.
EXAMPLES:
Not to judge, but… sometimes I wonder if that guy is really a Christian.
Not to judge, but… I think he’s in it for the wrong motive.
If you ever catch me doing that, SLAP ME. Any statement that starts in such a matter should usually be ignored.

Anchored in the West Bank neighborhood of Minneapolis, Missio Dei is committed to following Jesus' way of peace, simplicity, prayer, and hospitality.
