11 Don’t criticize one another, brothers and sisters. Anyone who defames or judges a fellow believer[a] defames and judges the law. If you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is one lawgiver and judge[b] who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor? —James 4:11-12
