God judges men from the inside out; men judge men from the outside in. Perhaps to God, an extreme mental patient is doing quite well in going a month without murder, for he fought his chemical imbalance and succeeded; oppositely, perhaps the healthy, able and stable man who has never murdered in his life yet went a lifetime consciously, willingly never loving anyone but himself may then be subject to harsher judgment than the extreme mental patient. It might be so that God will stand for the weak and question the strong. Criss Jami
About This Quote

In this quote, the author tries to explain that God is usually more forgiving than man thinks. In order to understand something, we have to look at both sides of the story. In the case of God judging us, we have to look at ourselves from a god's perspective. If we can't see how a person may be in a bad situation, we can't really judge them.

If a man has done a bad thing in a bad time, he can ask for forgiveness and God will forgive them. But if a man has never done anything wrong, but has done bad things in his life, they may be judged more harshly. This quote shows that you can't judge others until you realize how much it affects you.
