Jesus said in John 7:24 "Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."?

Judge according to the laws and customs of our times. You wouldn't judge a rapist? Or child molester, or killer?

But you cannot judge someone's salvation.

The term judge can be misunderstood--and in order to understand the context--so we would judge correctly. 1John 3V7:"Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous." "Righteousness" here, means the righteous life is the result of salvation through Christ. The righteous man under law became righteous by doing righteously, under grace he does righteously because he has been made righteous.

Romans 3V22:"Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: fir there is no difference: V23:"For all have sinned , and come short of the glory of God." All of us has to be judged on the basis of coming under Jesus righteousness since he it is died on the cross for the sins of the world. Romans 10V3:"For they being IGNORANT of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, HAVE NOT submitted THEMSELVES, unto the righteousness of God."

In other words, anyone who is righteous is not so on his own recognizance but that of Jesus Christ--and we are no better than the other guy--since all have sinned and need forgiveness and repentance of sin--through Jesus Christ perfect sacrifice on the cross.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
