The Only True Judge
Homiletic Monthly
1 Corinthians 4:3-5
But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yes, I judge not my own self.…


I. CHRIST AND NOT MAN THE ONLY JUDGE OF HUMAN CONDUCT.

1. Human judges are imperfect in knowledge and wisdom.

2. They are often unrighteous in their purpose.

3. Their ability to punish or reward is limited.

II. CHRIST'S QUALIFICATIONS AS A JUDGE.

1. He is our Master.

2. He is the head of the family to which we as Christians belong.

3. He has perfect knowledge of the law by which we are to be judged.

4. He knows all about every one of us.

5. He has absolute power to enforce His decisions.
