Judge not that ye be not Judged.

How peremptory and comprehensive {;
how concise and easily understood, is this
injunction of the blessed Redeemer. So
phystry is unable to pervert its meaning-it
has but one, and that, so apparent no one
can be deceived: neither the wise nor the
rich, can hope to escape the penalty it ap-
plies to the whole human race, yea every
one: and considering the sanctity of the
source from which it cmanated, coming from
the very lips of our Foly Saviour inhis
sermon on the Mount, the absence of all ex-
cuse as to its Specification, and the severity
of the punishment attached, we should
think Pagans alone, would be guilty of dis
obedience. Is such the fact? Are there
not even in communities that seem to be go.
verned by the principles of Religion, who
hold the bible in apparent reverence, treat
its ministers with respect, and pretend to
believe their holy teachings many who think
il no sin to condemn their neighbor, unchar-
ged, unheard, untried; upon the strength
and evidence of some vague rumor, of
crimes, grave, dark, hcinous!
is there moi amongst ali men, christians,
as well as worldlings, an unbecoming
proncness to seek after the faults, the follies,
and the foibies of their fellows and whilst
bringing out their sins in bold relief, and
giving them, too great a credit; to deny even
scanty justice, to those virtues which are
possessed!
Is not this, "plucking at the mote in thy
brothers eye whilst tho beam is still in thy
own2
Would it not be more christian, more
manly, and more seemly, to give credit to
our brethren, at least, for all the virtues,
they possess; and to condemn only, on the
best and most satisfactory evidence! Such
is the weakness Of poor human nature, and
the pronencss of the heart to evil, that even
then, tried by the mildest tribunal, and with
ample justice allowed, their good quail
ties would be all too few. Many,are the in. O.
cent victims, thus made to suffer: many the
virtuous men, changed into reckless crimi.
mails, by the cold words, the suspicious CLAN
ces, the scornful lips, of those who ought to
be their friends, but who had prejudged, and
passed sentenced without justice, charity, or
mercy.
But the punishment of such if not now,
is certain! for in the next verse Christ says,
For with what judgement ye Judge, ye
shall be judged: and with what measure
ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. y
