Judgement
<p>John 7:24
(ESV) Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."
(GNB) Stop judging by external standards, and judge by true standards."<span class="text_exposed_show">
(ISV) Stop judging by appearances, but judge with righteous judgment!"
(KJV) Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.</span></p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>In other words, judge from the point of Truth, via Logos/Logic. The Bible does NOT teach moral relativism.</p>
<p>How can one judge what is pearls before swine without proper judgement? Most only cite Matthew 7:1 without citing the rest of the passage:</p>
<p>Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Mat 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Mat 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Mat 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.</p>

Eph 5:12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
Eph 5:13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light [of Truth]: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.</span></span></p>
