Bible Verses About Blaming Others

What does the Bible say about blaming others?

Let’s be honest, we all have pointed the finger at someone at some point in our lives especially in elementary school. Now as we grow in Christ, we should not be blaming others for our mistakes, but instead take full responsibility. God’s Word helps you make the right choices in life. You can’t say, “he made me sin” when you followed him. You didn’t have to follow, but you did.

22 Helpful Bible Verses About Blaming Others

Never trust in man, but put your full trust in the Lord. On the Day of Judgment you can’t say, “that false teacher deceived me.” Why did you follow the false teachings?

Why didn’t you read God’s Word yourself instead of going with evil? God is not mocked. Blaming someone for your wrongs is not an excuse. Take responsibility, do what’s right, and confess your sins.
