Every generation defines what is right and wrong. However, the problem lies in the fact that people judge others based on their outward appearance rather than making righteous judgments concerning their hearts. As the Bible states, “People judge outwardly, but God judges the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7 for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart. If we compare the standards we observe today to those of past generations, we can see how each defined what was appropriate and what was not. For instance, if we look at how people dress today compared to the early 1900s, those in the early 1900s would have condemned the fashion choices of today. When I was young, churches would have condemned certain clothing styles that are common today in church settings. This approach is based on the belief that sin is determined by a person’s outward appearance. Every generation has its own set of standards for defining what is considered sinful and what is not. But God sees the heart and judges the people by what he sees. Not by their appearance. If you’re going to pass judgment on someone, make sure it’s a righteous one. Look into their heart. What is in your heart is what God sees.
