225th Post Jesus on Reproof and Forgiveness Con't. - Mark 4: 24

Mark 4: 24 Jesus talks on judging continued second post.
And he said to them, "Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you."
This passage seems not to go with the Matthew 7 passage of previous post. The word measure does not seem to be positive or negative. This is correct, depending on if you judge good or bad does not matter, what matters is that you as the judger, what you judge will be added to your bill at the Lord's judgment, either good or bad. Matthew focuses only on the negative judgment, but Mark and Luke focus on the increase of the doer either for positive or negative. Abraham Lincoln is credited for saying "If you look for the bad in people, you will probably find it." Jesus is telling us to focus on our brother's good qualities instead of their negative. This is another attribute of God's that will separate you from the rest of the world. If you are new to Christianity and don't know how you are to change your life, you might check out the list of Beatitudes (Matthew 5: 2 - 11), as you walk with Jesus you should be adding these to your life, if you do this they will change from the Beatitudes to the "Be Attitudes"! Look at Jesus' ministry from this point on and he modeled everyone of these during His Life. To be a Christian is to remember we are Christ- Like. How is your walk?
