Luke 6:41-42
41 And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye? 42 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother's eye.
A tree bearing good fruit is never reaches perfection, but aims at it as the goal. So judging others harshly when we have the bigger logjam in our own vision gets in the way. Jesus told us to first cut down the forest of our own looming faults before helping others to dust off their small problems to clear their sight.
