Judgment
Family Churchman
1 Corinthians 4:3-5
But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yes, I judge not my own self.…


I. IS THE PREROGATIVE OF GOD.

1. It belongs not to man.

2. Not to ourselves.

3. But the Lord.

II. Is PREMATURE IN THIS LIFE. Because —

1. Many things are hidden.

2. There is no universal and absolute standard.

3. None capable of applying it.

III. IS RESERVED TO THE COMING OF CHRIST.

1. To Him all judgment is committed.

2. By Him all hearts shall be disclosed.

3. From Him every man shall receive his reward.
