Show me where I said Jesus never criticized false prophets.
(Hint, I didn’t).
The religious people of His day called out prostitutes, tax gatherers and such. Then the religious people drug them to Jesus to see what He would do.
The ‘lamb slain from the foundation of the world’ first ‘called out’ the religious people (hypocrites). Then charged the accused to ‘go and sin no more’. Jesus had the authority to do that be cause HE DIED FOR THEM - both camps.
If we use Him as our example, I believe we can judge - after we have laid down our life for them. I don’t think Jesus took pleasure in calling out the religious/hypocrites in His day. As I read these threads, I think most of the ‘righteous judgements’ thrown out don’t meet His standard.

I think they do.
They are made out of concern for the lost who look to charlatans for the answer.
