Judgment or Discernment
Luke 6:36 Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
Proverbs 15:14 The discerning heart seeks knowledge, but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly.
Judgment: to form an opinion, notion or conclusion.
Discernment: to recognize as different from the will of God.
Judgment says, “I see your faults and you have chosen badly. I can do it better. You will fail and I will be right.”
Discernment says, “I see the choice you have made and it is against God’s will for you. I will pray you receive insight from the Holy Spirit and correct yourself so God will be glorified.”
