7 MAJOR WAYS TO CONTROL YOUR JUDGEMENTAL INSTINCTS

If one is not careful, one will spontaneously be passing judgements on everybody for every mistake they make. It is a natural instinct to want to judge others even when God said we should not judge. Judgement in this sense means always criticizing and condemning others for their errors instead of finding ways to lovingly move close to them, reprove and then correct them. It should be noted that judgements in the court of law on criminals is different from this type of judgement we are talking about here.

Below are some of the ways one can put that instinct to check whenever there is an urge to quickly judge and condemn others for every error they make.

1. Love yourself and feel good about yourself: Personal comparison usually breeds judgements on others. If you love yourself the way God created you and what God has given you grace to achieve, you will not be judging and condemning others every time. Feel good about yourself always.

2. Look at your own behaviour. Are you 100% perfect?

3. Educate yourself about yourself and others: Some people behave in some ways that attract people's judgements not because they wish to behave like that but because of either health, psychological or even spiritual problems they have. If you are not educated on causes of their actions, you will just keep judging them and that will not help them. Your own excessive judgemental urge also may be caused by a health, social or spiritual lacuna which is unknown to you. You have to know about yourself too.

4. Look for basic kindness of others: If you remember that someone has his areas of strengths and some element of being nice, you will not want to condemn them when they commit little errors. Everyone has his/her good and bad sides.

5. Put yourself in their shoes.

6. Forgive them.

7. Don't judge yourself for being too judgemental all this while.

Thank you for reading.

Preach on.

But Nigerians ignorantly see everything through the eyes of tribe, religion and financial status.

Before they make any judgement, they will first check tribe. If it's their tribe, they will come from a conciliatory angle "this person nor try at all, but no one is perfect, blah blah". If it's another tribe "Those people are the worst, very typical of them blah blah". They don't care about all those your bullet points and you can't reason with them when they are in such mode. Very typical, predictable and tired type of behaviour. Most of the time they are even preaching to the converted self, so it's a waste of time and just cheap point scoring where the scores are not even being recorded by anyone. A total waste of time, energy and space

Nice thread.....

In every story, there's always the liar,the soothsayer,and the truth itself cool

Personally,I don't just rush into giving my verdict in any issue that's placed before me.....I try to be precise, sensible and at most be impartial.......If you know me for real life, you'll definitely know I'm a no-nonsense kinda person undecided.

It's impossible to have me as a friend and expect me to keep your deathly secrets as secrets undecided. If you like call me woman wrapper,I no care....

Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Luke 6:37-38

Proverbs 31:9
Open your mouth, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy.
1 Corinthians 2:15
The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.

Leviticus 19:15
“You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor.
1 Corinthians 5:12
For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?

1 Corinthians 6:2
Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?

This is to Christians: Understand context when studying the bible. Don't pick one verse and twist the whole of scripture on its head because of it. The message is Judge righteously first considering that we are not in anyway perfect.

Judgement sometimes is as a result of pride seeing yourself above others forgetting the same environment would have a different effect on different individuals. Please don't judge or unnecessarily criticise people .....even the ones smiling are going through a lot, talk more of people that actually don't mask the effects of their situation.
