This document discusses judging and slander. It begins by defining slander as a malicious statement intended to hurt someone. While Scripture warns against slander, people often engage in it, even within the church. The document urges not taking revenge, as God is the ultimate defender. It notes James says not to condemn others, as only God can judge inner thoughts. The document clarifies this does not mean never making judgments, as believers will one day judge angels and are called to discern within the church through disciplinary processes aimed at restoration, not condemnation. It closes by reminding people to examine themselves first before addressing issues in others.
