One who chooses not to judge others

One who always foregives

Many of those who call themselves Christians maybe are not by this definition.

There is only One who can live up to that definition, perfectly. The rest of us Christians fall short of the mark. Because of Him alone, are we made the righteousness of God. Nothing we do, the grace was given freely from God. Looking at others and their shortcomings always leads me to the Cross and the unmerited gift I was given.
Thanks for the food for thought.
