Verses from Matthew

“为甚么看见你弟兄眼中的木屑，却不理会自己眼中的梁木呢？ 你自己眼中有梁木，怎能对弟兄说：‘让我除掉你眼中的木屑’呢？ 伪君子啊！先除掉你眼中的梁木，才可以看得清楚，去除掉弟兄眼中的木屑。”

‭‭马太福音‬ ‭7:3-5‬ ‭

““Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:3-5‬ ‭

Finding fault in someone else is so easy for most of us. Finding fault in ourselves is much trickier. 

Jesus reminds us that we must deal with the shortcomings and sins in our own lives before we start telling others how to live.
