Proverbs 17:15, “He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.” This may be where the saying “Don’t condemn in others what you condone in your own,” began. Too often we hear someone try to justify a crime because of a past occurrence or denounce a good person’s action with gossip. What is determined as good or evil has been established by our Creator and mankind does not have the authority to change His word.
