Let a Man Examine Himself

1 Corinthians 11:28

When we examine others, we justify self—but when we examine self, we are more disposed to justify others. Let a man—Examine his company (Psalms 1; Proverbs 13:20). Fowl of a feather flock together. Examine his habits (I John 2:15). Examine his thoughts (Psalms 10:4). “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). Examine his affections (Colossians 3:2). “To be carnally minded is death” (Romans 8:6). Examine his motives (I Corinthians 10:31). Are they acting for self or God? (Colossians. 3:17).
