One
must not trust one's feelings, since because of his limitedness a man cannot
know everything, and therefore his judgment is also relatively limited.
Even if you see with your own eyes that someone sins, do not judge, for the
eyes also may be deceived. One must in every way flee from judging, and
pray in secret for those who have sinned. This form of love is pleasing to
God. Judging is bound up with impudence and is incompatible with true
repentance: "To judge is to impudently appropriate to oneself the
rank of God."
