UNTIL WE PEER INTO THE WHOLE PERSON...

There are LOTS of things we DON'T know about other people, and the same is true for each of us!!!

That being said, it is one of the main reasons it is wrong to judge people, on sight, or via other people who can't resist talking about people! EACH person has a whole library of obscure information, which is not likely to reach others, unless they become close, or they feel the need to share something! We just CAN'T know what a person has seen, been through, been subjected to, endured, persevered, overcome, achieved, and so forth, therefore, we waste our time making assumptions based on externals! CHRIST spoke of this:
JOHN 7: 24...
Stop judging by appearances, but judge justly."

We must not judge concerning any by their outward appearance, but by their worth, and by the gifts and graces of God's Spirit in them.

JOHN 8: 15...
You judge by appearances, but I do not judge anyone.

---here the emphasis is that the judgment is not by material standards.

We are to measure people by their worth, and if we never find out their worth, then we have nothing to measure them by! Just as people have a difficult time reading through something, completely, these days, people don't feel they have the time to get to know others, UNLESS something external prompts them to, for the most part! ALL of us are judged by others, and it doesn't do much to promote LOVE, PEACE, or harmony in this world! And, there is likely, NOT a person alive whom hasn't prematurely judged someone based on externals! Thus, CHRIST bids us to THINK before we jump to conclusions, and to get to the heart of a person, in order to determine their worth!!!

More than not, externals falsify the TRUTH of a person, be this to their worth, or not! Many are hypocrites, their excellence is for show, but the core of the person is void! Others are REALLY good people, but their goodness is not shouting out for attention, so, they are picked over in favour of those whom DO garner attention, and so forth!!!

All I know is that it creates SO much trouble in this time, in any time, when people rush to conclusions, jump to classify a person, and put limits on getting to KNOW others! It isn't FAIR in ANY context, and certainly, isn't aligned...

What we DON'T know, DOES hinder us, and other people as well...

You see, the more we grow into the spirit, the more things there are to THINK about BEFORE we speak, act, or react, for our EVERY movement in this time, SHOULD be aligned to THE LORD, and HIS WILL! It AIN'T easy, and that old deceiver is ever nearby, yet, *GOD* IS WORTHY of our EVERY good allegiance!!!

Again, it ISN'T about guilt, it is about LOVE, and LOVING as HE HAS instructed, and taught us to! LOVE has NO interest in judging, nor condemning, nor isolating others, instead, it desires to aid them in flourishing, in comfort, and, ALL things good!!!

LOVE WELCOMES others into it's circumference, into it's core, into it's generosities, and into it's healing embrace; it does NOT reject premised upon perception!!!

One might IMAGINE they are superior to another, but, until there is the generosity of having something to make such a comparison, are they not puffed up on themselves? Not only that, there is but ONE SUPERIOR, THE MOST HIGH *GOD*!!!

NO SELF IN *GOD*, instead, spirit! This DOESN'T seem to hit home in many people, which is WHY we have so many problems in this time! LOVE IS THE LAW, and IN THAT LOVE, self is cast aside, while others are given priority!!!

Let us ALWAYS THINK BEFORE we place ourselves outside THE LORD, HIS WILL, HIS WAY, and HIS LOVE!!!
