"Only God Can Judge Me" - Matthew S2E5

"Only God Can Judge Me" - Matthew S2E5

March 9, 2026 · 1 hr 6 min

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “Judge not”? In this episode of Deepen, Pastor Joby Martin, Pastor Britt and Ali Parsons unpack Matthew 7 and the difference between discernment and a judgmental spirit. They talk about why “only God can judge me” can be such a dangerous mindset, how judgment steals our joy, why we’re called to pray for people instead of picking them apart and what it looks like to live with humility, repentance, and grace.

If you’ve ever struggled with comparison, criticism, or trying to fix everyone around you, this conversation is a powerful reminder that true freedom and joy are found not in judging others, but in surrendering fully to Jesus.
