You, then. Christ is the one Lord and Judge. What right do you have to pass judgment on your brother? Why do you despise? The hypercritical pharasaic attitude is always sin. All of us will stand. When we judge our brother, we put ourself in God's place. But we are not judges, and all of us will stand before the Judge of all. As we remember this fact, we will avoid passing judgment on our brother and despising him. Compare Matthew 7:1-2 and notes.
