We are not the ultimate "judge" in the big picture, but we are to correct a brother who is in sin, if, (and it's a big if), we have our own house in order. Christ was not timid when it came to correcting and trying to save sinners (which we all have in common, sinning that is).

Agreed. However, I was addressing judging which has nothing at all to do with correcting a brother. And even after we go through the correcting process to the point of getting the church involved, and that person still refuses to open his/her eyes to the truth of the situation, we still are not to judge that person. Instead, we are to turn it over to God and pray for that person out of love regardless of how much that person has harmed us or others.
