The Only Judge

"Do not judge others, for you cannot know what is inside the other man. Do not condemn, for he may still rise whilst you may fall. Beware of even talking about others, lest you start judging them. Enquiring into other people’s sin is a curiosity hateful to God and man…because, by judging, man usurps the powers of the only judge, Christ…Above all, when judging another we cannot know whether perchance he has not already repented and been forgiven by God."
Saint Tikhon of Zadonsk
