Judge not.

This is a great reminder that we should not judge one another..That is up to God.

BEST POEM IN THE WORLD

I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp--
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money! twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.

Herb, who I always thought
Was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?
God must've made a mistake.

'And why's everyone so quiet,
So somber - give me a clue.'
'Hush, child,' He said, 'they're all in shock.
No one thought they'd be seeing you!'

Final judgment I can leave for a higher power but, I am damn sure going to be doing some pre qualifying.

I agree.

And I say the Bible does not really give us the command of "do not judge" as it actually tells us to judge.

In John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. KJV.

and Acts 4:19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. KJV.

And where Jesus said; "Judge not, that ye be not judged" link Matthew 7:1-5 really means that we are to judge one self first and if we do not do our own rightful judging then we will not receive it for our own benefit.

So long as one wants to do right and wants to be true then being rightly judged is a wonderful and blessed thing to get, and only the guilty and defiant ones shun being judged.
