Matthew 7:1–6 | Earnest Expectations


"Judge not" is one of Jesus' most quoted—and most misunderstood teachings. In this message from Matthew 7:1–6, we discover that Jesus isn't forbidding discernment; He's confronting hypocritical judgment. Before pointing out the speck in someone else's eye, we're called to deal with the plank in our own.


Join us as we explore:

- The true meaning of "Do not judge."

- The difference between discernment and condemnation.

- Why self-examination must come before correction.

- How to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus.


Key Takeaway: Healthy relationships begin with humble hearts.
