My husband loves God deeply.
I see Jesus is love by his heart. The love of God poured out of him. He has the heart, mind and strength of the living God, because
Jesus said
John 15
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends
Jesus didn't just lay his life down for his friends, but for all of us, to bring us the truth and to bring us the love of the living God
How much more love can he have had, than to be hanging on the cross and then to say.
"father forgive them, for they know now what they do"
As for judging others, I believe that there are good and bad in all denominations, and God knows his own. I was sitting in my garden and there are many different flowers. And I thought that this is like Gods people. We are all different. With different gifts and levels of understanding, we bloom at different times, some are stronger than others. But all belong in the garden of God. It's not the denomination, it's the love and obedience that we have in our hearts for him and the love given to us from him that counts, and we have to show that love in our lives to others, sharing the light to those around us and those who are in darkness and bring them to Christ.
I never judge, because I have met people from different churches who I've heard God in.
One young man was a mainstream Christian. I was at the beach and he came over to me and started talking about God. He was only 22, and we had a good talk. Anyway, after about an hour, I asked him if he had ever seen anything in God and he said this.
He was sitting in a hotel that morning, and the sun came out, and it shone straight through the window, he closed his eyes and felt the warmth, he said that even though the sun is far away, he could still feel the warmth here on earth, the window couldn't keep it out, and he felt close to God.
I had the same thought one day when i was in my garden too, he had a lovely soft heart
Then I spoke to a man, who many here would say he's in a cult, another soft heart and he said this
He put a closed topped milk bottle in the sink and turned the water on to cool it down, but the water made as shield right over the bottle covering it completely and he said that he saw that this is what happens with us, when we have the armour of God covering us. We are washed and covered in his word.
Both these men would be looked at as unsaved by others. But who are we to judge who God has his eye on. No denomination is perfect, and we are all flesh which loves to judge by the flesh. But God sees differently to us and he judges by his word through his his people. So even though i don't believe in a lot of church teachings, I don't judge people. Because God will be the one who will judge all of us, and we are naked in his sight. He sees the very depths of our hearts and knows us completely, we can't hide anything from him.
By the way, I only read the Bible
