Luke 6:37-38 Part 1 of 2

"Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn others, or it will all come back against you. Forgive others, and you will be forgiven. Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full--pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back."

"Do not judge others, and you will not be judged."

1 Corinthians 4:5  So don't make judgments about anyone ahead of time--before the Lord returns. For he will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. Then God will give to each one whatever praise is due.

1 Corinthians 5:12  Don't speak evil against each other, dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God's law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you. God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbor?

James 5:9  Don't grumble about each other, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. For look--the Judge is standing at the door!

"Do not condemn others, or it will all come back against you." 

Romans 14:4  Who are you to condemn someone else's servants? Their own master will judge whether they stand or fall. And with the Lord's help, they will stand and receive his approval.

Romans 14:10  So why do you condemn another believer? Why do you look down on another believer? Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.

Romans 14:13  So let's stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.

"Forgive others, and you will be forgiven." 

Matthew 6:14  "If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you."

Matthew 18:23-24  (see verses 23-35) "Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven can be compared to a king who decided to bring his accounts up to date with servants who had borrowed money from him. In the process, one of his debtors was brought in who owed him millions of dollars."

Matthew 18:32-33  "Then the king called in the man he had forgiven and said, 'You evil servant! I forgave you that tremendous debt because you pleaded with me. Shouldn't you have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?"
