Saved from judgement by asking the Lord to save us by prayers of one we judged


If you have the sinful habit of judging your neighbor, then whenever you judge someone make three prostrations that day with this prayer: 'Save, O Lord, and have mercy on him (whom I have judged) and by his prayers, have mercy on me, a sinner.' Do this every time you judge someone. If you do this, God will see your sincerity and will deliver you from this sinful habit forever. And if you never judge anyone, then God will never judge you. In this way you will even receive salvation.

Really wise advice.
