Re: judging

I sometimes don't exactly know how to treat non-Christians and their behavior. I'm sure that most of us have had non-Christian coworkers/class-mates/etc. that are mean and nasty, cheats and liars, adulterers, etc. 1 Cor 5:9-14 says that we don't need to disassociate with them, and it's not our place to judge (whatever that means, exactly). You don't want to alienate them, nor do you want them to think that you approve or that everything's just fine and dandy. I'm not sure that I know if and where the Bible addresses it directly. The obvious I suppose: pray for all, speak with grace, and love. Maybe that's just it. God will ultimately judge.
... that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. John 5:23
