justify v. condemn

[DPMartin]

who has the power to justify and condemn? in the Kingdom of God we know, but what of the world or even one's own self?

do we not seek to justify within our selves and to others when necessary, that which we do and think, and condemn that which we disagree with or is contrary to what we desire.

I believe in Romans alone 11 times the Author states Christ justifies us?

what justifies you to be in the kingdom of God is a no brainer, this is about the justification and condemnation that occupies the mind and heart constantly. from having an ice cream to moving to another country or sitting on a jury. one must justify every action or decision. Or condemn it as not valid in respect to what is preserved as good for or not good for.


hence one should consider that the fulfillment of the Word of God in man is justified.

One can disagree without condemning.

how is that?

what gray area are you trying to justify?

Gray areas are just that- areas where each and every believer has liberty to do or not do as God has moved their conscience.

But I can disagree with you say on the timing of the second coming of Jesus without condemning. Maybe I am not sure what your point truly is.

If one has liberty to drink and do nto get drunk- there is no need to justify or condemn for example.

My intent was to help you get your thread started.

that's ok, most of these are not honest with themselves so, i doubt it will go anyway, thanks though.

moved their conscience? don't have to have one first? just what is a conscience anyway?

But I can disagree with you say on the timing of the second coming of Jesus without condemning. Maybe I am not sure what your point truly is.

how do you know you disagree with me on the second coming? its either justified by whatever justifies it for you or not, otherwise condemned, yea, or nay, thumbs up, thumbs down.

see, you're already justifying drinking without getting drunk, and condemning what would be excess in your judgement.

you justify the simplest of things like paying for Netflix, or you condemn the idea in your own mind of paying for such a thing. you have reasons for just about everything you expect to encounter in your life and those are either justifications or condemnations. and you can bet most of the condemnations have justification to condemn.

one has a justification in their mind and or heart to do what they agree to do. even if its immoral.

That was just used as an example. I need your definition of condemn (ed) then.

What the bible condemns we should as well. and the bible commands against getting drunk!

I understand condemn as the basic dictionary definition:

condemn
[kənˈdem]
VERB

1. express complete disapproval of, typically in public; censure.

Justified is the actions of a Saint. That way we're not being condemned by our actions. Condemn is what courts do, to put a person to have a criminal record for the rest of their lives and make it hard to be part of society again. That is holding something against someone for the rest of their lives.

I agree with @Ronald Nolette in that we can disagree without condemning. That's what teachers must do to teach children. They must often disagree without condemning to allow for the healthy growth of the student. And that's what makes a good teacher.
