George S. Hendry

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

“It seems plain that in commanding us not to judge, Jesus is not asking us to perform the impossible feat of suppressing our faculty of judgment. It is a question of how our judgment may be exercised in relation to—or in correlation with—the judgment of God…. We are led to the conclusion … that a prime ingredient of faith is total reliance on the judgment of God.”
