READ: 2 Corinthians 5:10-16
But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
Romans 14:10
Since you are going to stand before the judgment seat of Christ, you must not be concerned about who people are in the flesh. When you know someone after the flesh, you are conscious of his fleshly and human characteristics. These will stir you up to jealousy and racism. You will want to match and equal what the person is in the flesh. Racism is basically judging people after the flesh and after what you see.
If you start trying to have the same car, house and wealth that other people have, you will be making a mistake. I do not need to know men of God after the flesh. I do not need to know where they live or what cars they drive. I need to know them after the Spirit. I want to receive the word of God from them. I want to receive the anointing from them. That is what matters! Knowing things after the flesh will divert you into fleshly matters and take your mind away from heavenly things.
Because we will all finally appear before the judgment seat of Christ, it is important to avoid judging. Judgment is going to take place any way. Nothing is going to escape God’s attention. Those who deserve a curse will receive a curse. Those who deserve a reward will receive a reward. Just leave everything to God.
Many times, we desire to step into the shoes of God and pass judgment on people. We want to punish them for what they have done and to make them suffer. But that is not your duty. We will all appear before the judgment seat. It will be sorted out. Those who deserve to receive suffering, shame and embarrassment will receive full doses of them all. God is Judge!
