'Let us stop passing judgment on one another.' Romans 14:13
Instead of judging people, let's love them because judging doesn't help. It was a simple statement that would be repeated many times in the near future if you were to listen closely to the two people standing beside each other at this moment, but no one would. It had been a month since they’d officially met and both of them already knew their way around the world by heart.
YOU CAN work alongside and pray for someone who’s having an evil intent without having one yourself. Remember, you were a sinner before you are giving the grace of God, so act with humility and don t tall into the trap of self-righteous but as Rosell says, 'When God forgives, He consigns the offense to the everlasting . As you show grace when you encounter somebody’s whose lifestyle makes you uncomfortable.
Learn as much as possible about them, and allow your interaction with them without preconceptions and prejudices. See them as hurting individuals loved by God-people who need the same grace you received. When you love the unlovely, you’re doing what God did for you. Just because somebody's different, doesn't mean you hate them or consider them interior. You don’t want to be Judged or demeaned because of colour, culture, or countenance, so don't do it to others! Because the Bible is clear about emulating others in their sinful practices, we can be tempted to think we' re better than they are. That's the sin of pride! Sometimes we think if we love and accept certain people we're condoning their sin. No, the truth lies in remaining respectful, and accepting him
the way Jesus did. Whether it was racial differences (Samaritans), lifestyle differences

accepted people as they were, while inspiring them to a higher standard.
