Practice what you preach.

Before you point the finger, make sure your own hands are clean.

We all talk about other people being hypocrites, and maybe they
are. But do we really look at ourselves? Maybe we should look
at our own lives before looking at others. They say to "practice
what you preach", well, the sad fact is a lot of people don't.
"Oh, you can't do that, it's not right." But then you turn around
and do it. Then when confronted "Oh, it's different for me though,
because of this, and this." It's really not.

We all need to just stop!
Judging gets us nowhere. And don't preach it,
if you're not gonna live it. If it's not okay for
me to do, it's not okay for you to do either.

Matthew 7:3-5 - Why do you notice the splinter in your brother's eye, but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me remove that splinter from your eye,' while the wooden beam is in your eye? You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother's eye.
