The Evil of The Righteous
Thursday, March 27, 2025
As children of God, we should know what is right and holy, and what is sin and to be condemned. In looking around us, we see a world filled with sinners- dishonest, materialistic, bitter, prideful, stubborn, sensual, manipulative, abusive, greedy, self-centered... sinners. We feel good that as children of God, we're holy and blameless, but we still have to deal with all these sinners. In Hebrew, the word rasha means sin and evil, but the same word also means to cast judgment. When you cast judgment on people for being more sinful than you or think that you're more holy, your judgment doesn't make you more righteous, but more sinful. When you judge other believers or churches for being less spiritual than you are, you just become less spiritual. When you judge that person for not being loving, guess who also just became unloving. The true holy one is the one who keeps no record of sin. Therefore, be pure, be holy, and be innocent. Have nothing to do with 'rasha' either way, because those who are blameless are those who do not cast blame.
