In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus moves from personal temptations to interpersonal temptations. He warns against inappropriate judging (v. 1-5) and commends appropriate
evaluation (v. 6). The warning not to judge doesn’t mean that we don’t use discernment, but it does mean that we stay out of stuff that only belongs to God. In what areas of your life are you hypocritical? In what specific areas of your life right now do you need greater discernment?
