马太福音7：1-5

救主教导门徒要正义的评论

耶稣基督在祂的山上宝训中，教导门徒要正义的评论。在本课中，你会有机会学习了解正义的评论。

Read the following scenarios, thinking about what kind of judgments someone might make in each situation.

• 有人邀请你参加一个派对，在那个派对上许多青少年会使用违反智慧语的东西。

• 有个生活标准与你不同的人，想和你做好朋友。

• 你支会的一名成员在安息日做的活动，与你家的不同。

• 你发现一位朋友有看色情影片的习惯。

在本课中，你将学习了解正义的评论。你会有机会重新审视你对这些情境的想法，并应用所学。

• 关于评论，你有哪些疑问？

今天上课时，想想你对于评论的感觉，并仔细聆听来自圣灵的提示。将能加深你对救主关于评论教导的理解的灵感想法，记录下来。阅读 马太福音7：1 。这节经文往往被误解，误认为救主教导我们，绝对不应该作评论。现在阅读这节经文的约瑟·斯密译本（在 约瑟·斯密译本附录中 。）

• 约瑟·斯密译本如何增加你对救主关于评论的教导的理解？

• 你认为正义的评论是什么意思？

阅读以下这段话：

Judgment is an important use of our agency and requires great care, especially when we make judgments about other people. All our judgments must be guided by righteous standards. Only God, who knows each individual’s heart, can make final judgments of individuals.

Sometimes people feel that it is wrong to judge others in any way. While it is true that we should not condemn others or judge them unrighteously, we will need to make judgments of ideas, situations, and people throughout our lives. …

… As much as we can, we should judge people’s situations rather than judging the people themselves. Whenever possible, we should refrain from making judgments until we have an adequate knowledge of the facts. And we should always be sensitive to the Holy Spirit, who can guide our decisions.

(Gospel Topics, “Judging Others,” topics.ChurchofJesusChrist.org)

• 这段话中哪些字词或词句，帮助你明白何谓正义的评论？

阅读 马太福音7：2-5 ，找出其他关于评论的教导。在 第3节 中，救主将一小块木屑比喻为刺，又将一大块木头比喻为梁木。

• 为什么一个眼里有梁木的人，很难移除别人眼中的刺？

• 你觉得救主透过梁木跟刺的比喻，是要教导什么？

学生可能找出以下一些原则：

我们评论他人的方式会影响救主将评论我们的方式。

如果我们专注在看见及悔改我们自己的罪和弱点，那么我们就比较不会不正义地论断他人。

我们悔改自己的罪之后，才能更好地帮助他人。

在学生提到这些或其他原则时，用学生的话将它们写在白板上。

• 记住这些教导，对我们为什么很重要？

• 我们可以从这些教导中，学到哪些有关耶稣基督的事？

观看ChurchofJesusChrist.org上的影片「隔着窗户向外看」（2：19），看看救主教导的真理的另一个例子。

• 按照基督对于评论的教导生活，有时候为什么很难？

• 你可以如何透过耶稣基督来请天父帮助你，在你的生活中运用这些原则？

从开始上课时所讲的假设情境中选一个，或想一个类似的情境。

There are two kinds of judging: final judgments, which we are forbidden to make, and intermediate judgments, which we are directed to make, but upon righteous principles. …

… Let us consider some principles or ingredients that lead to a “righteous judgment.”

First, a righteous judgment must, by definition, be intermediate. It will refrain from declaring that a person has been assured of exaltation or from dismissing a person as being irrevocably bound for hellfire. …

Second, a righteous judgment will be guided by the Spirit of the Lord, not by anger, revenge, jealousy, or self-interest. …

Third, to be righteous, an intermediate judgment must be within our stewardship. We should not presume to exercise and act upon judgments that are outside our personal responsibilities. …

Fourth, we should, if possible, refrain from judging until we have adequate knowledge of the facts. …

A fifth principle of a righteous intermediate judgment is that whenever possible we will refrain from judging people and only judge situations.

(Dallin H. Oaks, “‘Judge Not’ and Judging,” Ensign, Aug. 1999, 7, 9–11)

• 你选了哪一个情境？

• 关于这个情境，你应该作怎样正义的评论？

• 你应该要小心不要作怎样的论断？

• 遵循救主的教导，你怎样才能在作任何评论时既公正又仁慈呢？

• 在这种情况下，记住自己的罪和弱点会有什么帮助？

请自愿者分享他们的看法。仔细聆听学生的回答，以评估他们的学习状况。

有时候，人们会误以为救主在 马太福音7：1-5 的教导指的是，我们绝对不应该作评论。总会会长团达林·邬克司会长澄清，神鼓励我们去作某几种的评论：

Answer the following questions in your study journal:

2.

沉思以下问题：

• 我应该作怎样的评论，我应该要谨慎不要作怎样的论断？

• 关于正义的评论，你在本课学到了什么？你所学到的事，如何帮助你更能以救主的眼光，看待他人和自己？

• 你对于评论的疑问，获得怎样的回答？如果你有任何还没得到答覆的问题，许下承诺要继续研读，并寻求来自圣灵的答案。

• 什么能帮助你在生活中，少去论断他人？

不妨分享你对正义的评论的见证。

To be Christlike, a person loves mercy. People who love mercy are not judgmental; they manifest compassion for others, especially for those who are less fortunate; they are gracious, kind, and honorable. These individuals treat everyone with love and understanding, regardless of characteristics such as race, gender, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and tribal, clan, or national differences. These are superseded by Christlike love.

(Dale G. Renlund, “Do Justly, Love Mercy, and Walk Humbly with God,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2020, 111)
