Podcast:Nephilim Death Squad Published On: Sat Oct 31 2026 Description: STRAIGHT BIBLE SATURDAY on Nephilim Death Squad.Does "judge not" mean Christians should never judge? In Matthew 7:1-5 (KJV), Jesus says judge not, that ye be not judged, then tells us to cast the beam out of our own eye before we go after the mote in our brother's. So when does the Bible say we must judge?Sermon on the Mount Pt 30, hosted by Matttttt Hepner and TopLobsta, opening Matthew 7.They start with the Greek word for judge (krino) and read verse 1 alongside verses 6 and 7 (it is written, it is also written, Matthew 4). Then: with what measure ye mete (Luke 6:35-38), the woman taken in adultery and "he that is without sin" (John 8:1-11), you condemn yourself (Romans 2:1-6) and vengeance is mine (Romans 12:19). Next, where Christians must judge: inside the church (1 Corinthians 5:9-13, 1 Timothy 6:1-5), ourselves before communion (1 Corinthians 11) and righteous judgment (John 7:24). They close on the mote and the beam and Isaiah's "woe is me" (Isaiah 6).
