Summary

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “Judge not”? In Matthew 7, Jesus confronts the judgmental spirit that so easily takes root in our hearts and calls His followers to something better—a life marked by grace, humility, and discernment. In this message, we explore the difference between being judgmental and exercising biblical discernment, why dealing with the “log” in our own eye matters before pointing out the “speck” in someone else’s, and how the grace of God transforms the way we see people. Ultimately, Jesus invites us to stop living as critics and start living as people shaped by grace. Through prayer, humility, and surrender to Christ, we can step off the broad road of pride and onto the narrow way that leads to life. 📣 Episode Mentions:• Scripture Passage: Matthew 7:1-14• Preacher: Pastor Ryan Britt 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week:• From Prison to Fatherhood: A Powerful Story of Redemption - Brian's Story• "Only God Can Judge Me" - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin: Matthew S2E5• Matthew Season 2: Mountain to Mountain Sermon Series The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
