Judging the right way
Hello everyone, welcome to my blog. Today, I want to write briefly on judging others especially those that are anointed to be in a specific position in the Christian kingdom such as bishops, pastors, apostles, prophets, ...etc. You can name them as you are aware of those around you.
People are fond of blaming others and condemning them for their actions. In fact, you will see so many filth words coming out of people who called themselves Christians all because they are trying to point out the mistakes of the popular figures around them or in the world that are known to be people of God.
They have forgotten what the scripture admonishes us to do when we see others falling. You are not to judge others as judgement belongs to God but rather pray for them to be brought back to God so that satan will not win their souls.
1 Timothy 2:1 ESV
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,...
Acts 26:18 ESV
To open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’
Remember that you are a chosen one once you are in Christ and your light must shine. which means that when you see fellow Christians drifting away from the light, you are to look for ways to bring them back and not condemning them.
Pray for them and point out their mistakes with love.
1 Peter 2:9 ESV
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
This is the only way we can defeat the devil when we show love to those that are falling and bringing them back to the light of Christ. Be a good Christian and let grow the kingdom of God.
Shalom!

It doesn't say in the Bible that we should pray for the salvation of lost people. It would be, in effect, asking God to take away their free will so they could accept Christ of their own free will.
You're taking that verse in Acts out of context:
(Acts 26:15-18 NIV) "Then I asked, 'Who are you, Lord?' "'I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,' the Lord replied. {16} 'Now get up and stand on your feet. I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen of me and what I will show you. {17} I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them {18} to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'
No offence, but I think you need the Holy Spirit to interpret the word of God deeply. That is when you can understand the mind of God for humans.
Shalom!
