There are so many false prophets that take the word of God and put their own slant on it so it sounds more pleasing to the flesh to appeal to more people. In Malachi 3:6, it says "I am the Lord, I change not, therefore ye some of Jacob are not consumed."
False profits are taking what you are taught from God and using pride and ignorance so do not allow them to spoil, beguile, or judge you based on their false teachings.
Take the time to develop your own relationship with God and beware of false prophets. They will always sugar coat anything with their own slant. They are to please the flesh by showing very little consequence and only the outcome.
They can be in the form of Christians that have back slided, sinners perpetrating as Christians, and yes even pastors, elders, bishops etc. So be very careful not to fall victim to their ploys and games.

Only God Can Judge
It is so critically important that we do not judge others. We have absolutely no idea of every experience or thought of anybody. Only God is all knowing. In Matthew 7:1-2, the Bible says,"Judge not, that you be not judged. For the judgement that you pronounce will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you."
Each individual person must develop their own personal relationship with the trinity of God. When you judge others, then you are judged by the same measure if not more so than if you did not judge in the first place. In John 14:16, Jesus says," I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." That simply means that Jesus is the only way to follow.
Jesus sits on the right hand of God and if God says that we are not to judge then we are not to judge. John 13:34-35 says, "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another." God is commanding that you love others the way that he loved you. Going further in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 we are given the definition of what it means to love according to God."Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things."
There is absolutely no room for judgement when you obey God's commandment to love one another if you are really a born again, tongue speaking Christian then you can not judge others. In Romans 13:1, " Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. for there is no authority except from God, and those that have been instituted by God. Therefore who ever resists the authorities will incur judgement."
In conclusion, you have no right to judge others regardless of the circumstance or situation. Only God can judge. If you do so then others will judge you.
