SPECKS AND PLANKS Luke 6:37-42

"Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you." And He spoke a parable to them: "Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch? A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher.

Luke 6:37-42 And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye?

First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother's eye.
