1. God’s teachers do not judge. ²To judge is to be dishonest, for to judge is to assume a position you do not have. ³Judgment without self-deception is impossible. ⁴Judgment implies that you have been deceived in your brothers. ⁵How, then, could you not have been deceived in yourself? ⁶Judgment implies a lack of trust, and trust remains the bedrock of the teacher of God’s whole thought system. ⁷Let this be lost, and all his learning goes. ⁸Without judgment are all things equally acceptable, for who could judge otherwise? ⁹Without judgment are all men brothers, for who is there who stands apart? ¹⁰Judgment destroys honesty and shatters trust. ¹¹No teacher of God can judge and hope to learn.
