Have you ever stepped on a scale that gave you the wrong number? Maybe it said you were lighter than you are—giving false confidence. Or maybe it made you heavier—leaving you discouraged. Jesus warns us about using a broken scale when we judge others—one clouded by hypocrisy, pride, and blind spots. But does that mean we should never judge at all? In Matthew 7, Jesus doesn’t tell us to abandon judgment—He calls us to refine it. He invites us to examine ourselves first, to see clearly, and to discern rightly. This Sunday, join us as we explore what it means to judge with truth, humility, and wisdom—not with a broken scale, but with the heart of Christ.
