Judge Not That Ye Not Be Judged
In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said, among other things, that we should not judge other people. (Matthew 7:1,2). In fact He said we will be judged with the same measure with which we judge others.
As a practicing Christian I sincerely want to follow His teaching and I don’t want the consequences of judging other people. However, the teachings of Christianity also call us to wisdom and discretion.
Which leads me to a growing point of concern.
Hillary Clinton.
Last week Chris Field at Human Events expressed the concern of many of us on the traditional side. He said, in a piece titled, Hillary, the Chameleon, “I have always considered Hillary Clinton a formidable politician, but I haven’t really feared a Hillary presidency because I haven’t thought she was electable. I’m not quite as sure any more. Hillary, in her true skin, is too stridently liberal and unlikable to be electable in a national election. But who says she has to show her true skin?�
I’m sure you have noticed, as I have, that Hillary has been working the speech circuit with new vigor during the past few months. If you watch what she says, you will get the impression that she is almost “pro-life� on the issue of abortion and stem cell research and euthanasia.
Yesterday, former President Bill Clinton told Japan’s ASAHI TV that his wife, Hillary, would be an excellent choice as the first female leader of the world’s most powerful nation. He said, “I don’t know if she’ll run or not, but … I would always try to help her.�
She’s already running.
With great gains for conservatives in the last election, this is the time for great vigilance as we look forward to the next one. Liberals are convinced they can’t run and win as themselves, so they are even now conducting “casting calls� looking for just the right person to play the role of the centrist, caring, serving, political leader.
The word, “hypocrite� actually comes from a Greek word, which was used to describe the many faces of the actors in Athens.
Another practicing Christian once wrote the following words in a letter to his friend, “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world.� St. Paul, Colossians 2:8.
