Luke 6:37-38 King James Version (KJV)
37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:

38 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 Revised Standard Version (RSV)
Judging Others


37 “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; 38 give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back.”

We are to forgiven an unforgiving heart hurts that person who is not willing to forgive and often doesn’t hurt the other.


38 We are to make effort with things and God can open the door, sometimes we have to do our part as the Lord leads us before the rest comes together. We should strive to have the same measure of Christ even though we will never get there its always the direction we should be moving.
 
Good morning Brother @clark tompson.
Rom 8:1 There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus!

A non forgiving attitude and its consequences are self inflicted as conscience.

Grace and law can present conflict in judgment; especially to those coming out of Judaism and we read something like the following in 1 Cor 10:25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
