““I can do nothing on My own. I judge only as I hear, and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.” John 5:30 HCSB
Why is Jesus’ judgement righteousness? He has the full backing of John (John 5:31-35)., the Father (John 5:36-38), the scriptures (John 5:39-40), and Moses (John 5:41-47).
The person who acts and judges on his own is in trouble of being wrong. But if you act according to what God, Moses, and the Bible says you will do well.
“If anyone disregards Moses’ law, he dies without mercy, based on the testimony of two or three witnesses.”

“Two are better than one because they have a good reward for their efforts. For if either falls, his companion can lift him up; but pity the one who falls without another to lift him up. Also, if two lie down together, they can keep warm; but how can one person alone keep warm? And if someone overpowers one person, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not easily broken.”

I encourage you to be in fellowship with other Christians and God (The Father, the Son The Holy Spirit) in discipleship. We are not called to do this alone but with the help of others. The best way to learn anything is to be an apprentice of a great master. So find another person whom you respect for their faith and ask them to help you. And then find another to pass what you have learned on to them.
“And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, commit to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”

And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.””
