Why do Christians feel they have a right to judge another persons belief system?

It is absolutely ridiculous how some people feel entitled to judge another's belief system while in the midst of breaking one of the ten commandments themselves.

Outward told me i am not a Christian. It is very narrow minded to think your path is the only way to Heaven while you are in the midst of committing sin.

Why must one judge?

My suspicion is that at heart it is fear. In as much as some in effect identify correct BELIEF with salvation itself, any belief distinct from their own will pose a threat to their own standing with God.

If they understood the full meaning of GRACE then such fear would dissolve. That grace is given, gift. It is not an offer that we need to "accept". We do not choose, we are chosen.

Alas such people trust not in Grace but in their own "decision" and belief.

@SW-User Thank you for your very wise answer! I truly appreciate the wisdom in your point of view. It explains my reactive response just as well. Someone insignificant is passing judgment on not only my belief system but my salvation and that gift of grace.
Grace is just as much my gift as it is theirs. I will just live my best life and accept that gift of grace.
Thank you for sharing your insight so i could grow and gain a better understanding!
