Philipians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
We should look upon our own faults and be severe towards them, but concerning others we should be patient and graceful, and not quick to point out other people's faults. We should not be busy-bodies, always observing and wanting to see one another's fault and telling others about the "problem" in someone else's life. Love covereth a multitude of sin. If we really love our brother and sister in Christ we would not allow anyone to talk bad of them. Ps 50:20, slandering a brother is evil in God's eyes. Slander is to talk bad or belittle another, ruin their name or lie about them.
The spirit of pride tries to make one feel above another brother, but really,we should think and treat our brothers and sisters in Christ higher and better than ourself.
For myself, I am convicted. I pray we all get convicted and begin to lift up and encourage one another, serving God with like-mindedness.
