And all the people were trying to touch Him, for power was coming from Him and healing them all. ~ Luke 6:19

“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven;” ~ Luke 6:37

Beware of those who take this out of context. I hear this taken out of context often to shut the mouths of those who are correctly judging.

Judge not. As the context reveals, this direction does not prohibit all types of judging (Mat_7:16). We are supposed to exercise a righteous kind of judgment with careful discernment (Joh_7:24). Censorious, hypocritical, self-righteous, or other kinds of unfair judgments are forbidden; but in order to fulfill the commandments that follow, it is necessary to discern dogs and swine (Mat_7:6) from one’s own brethren (Mat_7:3-5). ~ MacArthur Bible Commentary
