Any Scripture?

Here's a couple verses below.

All of us are God's children. He loves us all and Jesus came to save us all. Do you really think that you are something special because you were born into a society where Jesus teachings are known? Somehow you are more important than the billions of people who never heard of Jesus? Such pride! Such hubris!You might want to review what Jesus said about pride and what He said about those who put themselves above other people. Todays Gospel was about humility, it might deserve a quick look.

Jesus taught us how to join Him in heaven. Not one word of these teachings has to do with us declaring who will or will not be saved. Why some feel it is beneficial to spend time on discussing judgments only God can make is beyond me.

I have enough trouble getting the plank out of my own eye let alone spending time discussing someone else's eyesight.

"Then hear thou in heaven, in the place of thy dwelling, and forgive, and do so as to give to every one according to his ways, as thou shalt see his heart (for thou only knowest the heart of all the children of men)". I Kings 8:39

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!"'
