In Matthew 7, Jesus does not forbid the use of godly wisdom to help others grow; He forbids the condemning, self-righteous attitude that judges motives and demands rights rather than seeking restoration. The problem is never the content of the truth we carry — it is the condition of the heart carrying it. Before we can rightly address anyone else's struggles, we must first confess our own sin, remove the log from our own eye, and approach people with the same grace and love Jesus showed. The world does not need more judges; it needs to see Jesus in us.
