We mature from not judging to judging in the Spirit of God, by this new birth in Christ. If any man/woman/child be in Christ, they are new creatures, old things are passed away, all things have become new, and all things are now of God, that have reconciled us, and given unto us the ministry of the word of reconciliation....Amen. You can discern from that which is evil and that which is righteousness by the Holy Ghost, don't doubt the power of God in your life...It is not possible to deceive those that are the Father's sheep. I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me!
