Judgment, Tolerance, and Correction

'Personal' from John W. Ritenbaugh

A common mantra, even among Christians, is 'You shouldn't judge.' Is this a right concept? Here is the problem, and how righteous judgment should be done.


Hate the Sin, But Love and Forgive the Sinner

Sermonette by Bill Onisick

One of the deadliest afflictions we can develop is a self-righteous, vindictive 'Phineas' complex, seizing the sword of the Lord to correct a fellow member.


Using Righteous Judgment

Sermon by Kim Myers

When we minimize sin, we become displeasing to God. God expects His people to confront brothers and sisters in Christ gently, without becoming judgmental.


The Prisoner

'Ready Answer' by Austin Del Castillo

We tend to work at cross-purposes to God, imprisoning ourselves and others in our adversarial relationships. The key to our cell is true forgiveness.


Do Not Judge

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

While we do not have the prerogative of condemning and passing judgment, we do have the responsibility of observing behaviors or inspecting spiritual fruit.


Casting Pearls

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Jesus warns His disciples not to cast their pearls before those not called or those acting contemptuously to God's truth and would attack the messenger.


The Petrified Heart

Sermonette by Austin Del Castillo

The antidote to the fear of repentance caused by pride is godly humility and the willingness to be set on the right spiritual course.


Matthew (Part Ten)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh


Thou Shall Love Thy Neighbor

Sermon by John O. Reid

We are obligated to show compassion and mercy to all, refraining from gossip, exercising righteous judgment, forgiving others and applying the Golden Rule.


Restoration and Forgiveness

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

It is impossible to grow spiritually in a climate of animosity and jealousy. If we use the power of God's Holy Spirit, peace will accrue as a fruit.
