JUDGMENT TO BEGIN WITH THE FAMILY OF GOD / 1 PETER 4:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 1 Peter 4:17

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

JUDGMENT TO BEGIN WITH THE FAMILY OF GOD / 1 PETER 4:17

Christians must look inward to evaluate themselves – their devotion to God and His Word – before they attempt to make judgments about those who do not know Christ and naturally defy God. This principle applies as well to individual believers, who must always seek to settle their own issues with God and remove sin from their own lives before proposing to help others within the church solve their problems (Matthew 7:3-5; Luke 6:41-42). This practice of self-examination, humility and turning from any sin within the church is necessary if the church is to see any degree of spiritual revival among believers and any significant influence for Christ in their communities (2 Chronicles 7:14).
