We recently received a comment to a Friend of Medjugorje’s October 25, 2021, broadcast titled, Who Are, They? This is what the person writes:

“Judge not lest you be judged.”
– Beverly from Utah
From Caritas:
Dear Beverly,
We have no idea what you are talking about.
We went over a Friend of Medjugorje’s broadcast forward and backwards. Never are these words found:
judge
judgement
hell
We know because we can search the transcript. You can too because the transcript is available online when you listen.
It would seem that if a Friend of Medjugorje was judging someone he would at least say those words or at least condemn someone to hell.
The word, “condemn” never was said.
He actually never even said the word “evil” either.
So, it seems that what you are actually saying is that he should never call it out when someone is wrong.
Or is your motivation different?
Is it political?
Is it because he mentioned Obama and the bishops at this point here?
What our experience has been is that the “judge not” is a cop-out used to tell people not to make any waves or even, in the least, say when someone is wrong.
We just want to state, for the record, that a Friend of Medjugorje does not make waves. He makes Tsunamis. The truth has a tendency to destroy everything in its path that is false.
Beverly, maybe you disagree. But, it is more respectable to say that, than to use the excuse of, “judge not.”
Actually, you judged.
The truth is potent. A listener from Texas wrote to us after listening to Who Are, They?:
“Yes, and I say a WOW with you about this explanation of our Mother’s message. The wow goes for the fierce truth you speak and moves me to take another look at her message.”
Same broadcast, two different reactions.
Maybe you think a Friend of Medjugorje was mean? One listener from Mexico wrote to us after the broadcast:
“There is so much love in your words, it’s amazing how true and rich your insights about Our Lady’s words are. Can’t wait to tell all my friends and Bishop and… everyone about everything you spoke of today.”
Again, same broadcast, two different reactions.
To all the “Beverlies” out there, we invite you to listen with the heart. There are two broadcasts you need to hear:
These two Radio Wave’s will only take you 73 minutes to listen, and will get you up to speed on everything happening in the world – without the false twist of the media.
Be sure to be spreading these broadcasts with your family and friends and on all your social media groups.

My perspective on the issue of judging is this: Judging has two meanings – discernment and determining judicial consequence for unacceptable behaviors (eternal or temporal). Discernment ( aka – judging) is knowing what the truth is. It is the determination of what is right and what is wrong. It is interpreting the law and its consequences. It is entirely appropriate to use “judge”, “judgement”, “hell”, “condemnation” in a discussion or debate about the known consequences of violating divine law. God has throughout salvation history indicated the consequences of non-compliance with His law – HELL. If one chooses to repeat the revealed truth of the consequence of sin, it is NOT the judgement of the person repeating revealed truth. It is in fact God’s judgement. Serious violation of God’s law leads to eternal death, other sin leads to purgation – which I call “hell with hope” – JUDGEMENT !!!
So, as I heard someone say: “Get with THE program or you will be in hell.” – JUDGEMENT !!! Our Lord came for sinners not the self-righteous – JUDGEMENT !!! God came for those who are willing to accept the despicable state of their souls – people who know they deserve to go to hell – JUDGEMENT !!! “There but for the grace of God, go I.” – JUDGEMENT !!! The self-righteous are delusional liars holding on desperately to their pretentious masks of holiness – they are the brood of vipers – the FAKE religious – JUDGEMENT !!!
For those who are willing – the only good choice is Jesus Christ who said, “I am the Good One.” ( poem of the Man-God) The only good choice is repentance and walking the long and difficult path of authentic conversion. Beverly is LOST and lacks discernment – judgment. She lacks an understanding of God – the love of God is fierce. Judgement is necessary to avoid hell. The human mind is made for judgement – just not the judgement reserved for God alone regarding the eternal consequence of sin for each individual person. May God have mercy on us all.
However, as revealed to Saint Don Bosco – 90% of mankind is dragged off to hell through satanic delusions about the state of one’s soul, about what needs to be confessed and repented of. We often suffer from imagined holiness. We do not know God’s law because we refuse to engage in judgement. We can’t imagine God has Standard Operating Procedures for dealing with sinners. We inordinately focus on God being “awesomely nice” and “merciful”. In “the church of nice” the confessional lines are short and the communion lines are long. We need to understand, God is disgusted and repulsed and angered. There needs be a vigorous debate (JUDGEMENT) regarding God’s laws of love – the 10 commandments and 8 beatitudes. We as a people have lost God. These times are worse than the times of Noah. The mercy of God has provided us with His Mother; and, yet we cannot perceive the gravity of our plight. Mankind is NOT nice. It never has been. There are NO good old days – just lies. We have a penchant for re-writing – editing out the evil of our lives. We need to see that evil. Keep it ever before our eyes. And, repent. NO AMOUNT OF REPENTANCE IS SUFFICIENT. It was written, in the poem of the Man-God I believe, Adam spend the rest of his life weeping over his sin. We should do he same, while hoping and praying and trusting in our loving Father
Authentic religion is an inside job – a focus on personal sin, repentance, service toward our fellow man. It’s time for repentance !!! It’s time to LIVE LOVE.
Now is not a time to shut-up. Shout from the highest mountain the GLORY OF THE LORD. HE is our one and only eternal hope.

Wow!!! Yes. We need to pray, pray, pray, and forgive, forgive, forgive, and repent, repent, repent. And go to confession. All of our good deeds are as filthy rags in the eyes of the Lord. Please heavenly Father show me my sins that I may repent and confess., Oh to hear the words well done good and faithful servant.

Dear FOM,
No doubt there are thousands of Catholics who are also die-hard Democrats. There is no way they will totally agree with your talks and your writings. We used to be Democrats but became Conservative Republicans when Reagan took office. You are spot on with your talks. We are also Catholics. We stand behind you. Thank you.

I 100% agree that there was no judging by FOM. Even when he is rightly angry with the non actioning politically incorrect Bishops, he says it is a report card not judgement. Political correctness has to be wiped from anyone’s mind who thinks this is a good idea. God created cultures and everyone different which is a wonderful thing to be celebrated, not downtrodden. For example I like chocolate and my wife likes strawberry flavours the most, and there is no way I will change her mind and nor should I try. Correcting people when they are against Church doctrine is sound thinking and a requirement of us. Failure to do this by all people is one reason why there is so much trouble going on at the moment. Trying to please the minorities will never work. It is interesting that [abominables] account for about 1.8% of the population. God loves people no matter who they are but hates the sin – as we should do. But in the twisted thinking of people at the moment, [abominable] people are everywhere on TV shows, movies etc to such an extent you’d think they are about half the population. This is all part of satans plan to destroy the family no doubt, but again we know satan always fails (I don’t know why he just doesn’t give up and go away forever and stop annoying us as he always loses in the end) – so his so called smart intellect isn’t very smart at all really in my opinion as God always wins. The days of division is ending satan as I know you are reading this, we are now more aware thanks to Our Lady and I look forward to her crushing your head so all these people with opinions skewed away from truth have an opportunity to decide for Gods ways. Keep up the great work FOM and COB – God bless.
