Judge

I wonder.

Christians are told we are not to judge others. Yet at the same time we are to tell someone, in love, when the person has done wrong.

How can you tell someone that he or she has done something wrong if the you have not judged?

I think god wants us to judge. he wants us to judge for ourselves that which is good and that which is bad, and make decisions based on that. He gave us the ability to judege, righteously, in accordance to the will of God.

But God does not want us to judge and to pass judgement in the form of, by way of example, condemnation, like the catholic church's excommunication policy. Judgement cannot be for the sake of condemning others, the objective of judgement has to be for the sake of pursuing God's character. Else there is no decision to be made without judgement.
