God’s goal in sending His Son from heaven to earth was not to condemn you, or show you how bad you are, how unworthy you are or how hopeless you are. God’s only desire in sending His Son was to show you His love and draw you into a love relationship with Himself. Jesus didn’t come into the world in order to rebuke you, He came to rescue you. He didn’t come to criticize you, He came to cleanse you. He didn’t come to punish you, He came to pardon you. He didn’t come to destroy you, He came to deliver you.
However this does not mean that God is not a God of judgment. For there is a huge difference between recognizing right and wrong and being judgmental. There is a difference between judging the unrepentant sinner and being judgmental. Being judgmental means having a critical spirit that only looks for the bad in people and then quick to condemn.
God on the other hand will judge us for our sins, only if we refuse to accept His offer of Salvation and forgiveness. So never go around looking for the fault in others so you can judge or condemn them, remember that God is loving and He wants all His Children to do right and follow Him alone.

Further Scripture Study: James 4:12
Declare This: Just like You Father, I refuse to be judgmental on others, but instead I express genuine love, love that will make others see Your love shine through me in Jesus name Amen.
