** Bible Scripture * Criticism * November 26, 2013 * Bible Verses **


Take care of your own problems before criticizing others (Matthew 7:3-5)
3 Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but don’t notice the log in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ and look, there’s a log in your eye? 5 Hypocrite! First take the log out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.  -- Matt 7:3-5 (HCSB)
 
Criticism should help people deepen their relationship with God (Luke 17:3-5)
3 Be on your guard. If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. 4 And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and comes back to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.” -- Luke 17:3-5 (HCSB)
 
Criticism should be given with a loving attitude (1 Corinthians 13:4-5)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not conceited, 5 does not act improperly, is not selfish, is not provoked, and does not keep a record of wrongs. -- 1 Cor 13:4-5 (HCSB)
 
Harsh criticism can destroy rather than help (Galatians 5:15)
15 But if you bite and devour one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another. -- Gal 5:15 (HCSB)
