I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

Judge others based on income?

There is a difference between 1. judging a person based on their income 2. judging their attitude towards their income towards how they are boasting pride and serve with humility. One example is excessive longing for wealth and gaining money to live in luxury. We are not to covet with Faith. A Christian and Money Get to know two things about a man- How he earns his money and how he spends it- and you have the clue to his character, for you have a search light that shows up the inmost recesses of his soul. You know all you need to know about his standards, his motives, his driving desires, and his real religion. Robert J. McCracken God do not judge those who are wealthy either but rather Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." Such as love of money. Reading the words of a person boasting their wealth tells me alot about a person more than their money.
