The threat of the word

To find out in our lives how we influence the good name of our neighbor through our behavior.
Each of us must have felt that he had been wronged. That what he did, no one can understand, that everything he does is misunderstood and evil. What’s up? The more one tries, the worse it is, and the world is full of misunderstanding and evil. We are condemned for what we did not do, or people cannot understand us. Not it is quite as people claim.
In today’s Gospel, the Lord Jesus also says to His disciples, “Do not judge, lest you be judged. For as you judge, so will they judge you, and what and ye shall measure it; it shall be measured to you ”(Mk 7: 1-2). To say something bad about someone, to evaluate, means to try to say something about them in court. We condemn someone for blaming someone. It is clear from the Gospel that He who is competent to judge is God alone. He is the One to which the court as such has jurisdiction. We have no right to take charge of anyone’s judgment simply because we do not see a person inside. Hence, this right is reserved only by God, who also knows the human heart and knows what is in it is located.
One has an ingrained sinful desire to comment on the behavior of others constantly. We can look at everything around us, at every human action; we have no appetite for any behavior of one’s neighbor but to look at one’s actions. We think we’re fine, we’re good, we try to do good, and if so, we commit some sin, we say to ourselves: “I cannot be such a saint, but I am wrong is human, and there are worse things than these! ” And here is the stumbling block. Let’s get started to compare the behavior of others with yours, and we do not look at the circumstances. Every man has his specific situation. In this situation, it responds to various impulses from the outside world. We do not know what these circumstances are, but we know this man immediately evaluates and denigrates society. We say we to that man we don’t want to go wrong, but at the same time, we comment on his every move and every word. It is like the poison we sow in the hearts of others. When this poison gets inside, a man poisons his whole. Such a person is then full of anger and can handle everyone say many words that are not always even true. Gossip is coming and finger-pointing. It is a terrible rage when we talk about our neighbor’s mistakes or them; we will even develop a way to diversify our debate on the latter. This most often happens during visits. People meet over coffee and go through their own whole area. They take over all acquaintances and exchange distorted information about others. The two friends met once and said to each other: You heard this … and the other one says you heard this again…
We can rightly ask. Aren’t these words part of our vocabulary? Aren’t we looking for unverified information and damaging the honor of our neighbors? Each of us has a duty to go deep in our spiritual lives and look within ourselves as we judge our neighbors. What talks about them, we know. Let us remember that only God has the right to judge. Jesus speaks vigorously as well to us, “Do not judge, lest you be judged” (Mt 7: 1).
