Todays Word from our Lord is about accusations and Forgiveness: yes we all sin and do wrong and blah.....but there is a more excellent way, and that begins with asking for forgiveness, then changing our behavior and moving on.
This is a Powerful Word of Grace and Truth, and in awesome simple form Jesus squashes all judgement by turning the accusers into reluctant executers -- who then, and i love it, leave from the oldest first -- till everyone is gone but the woman; the older we get, the more we can see our own hyprocrisy's....i know i can!...
And i love how He is writing something casually in the dirt, during and after He spoke so simply yet Powerfully (this is awesome ha!)....whilst everyone is going crazy around Him shouting for this woman's death cause she was caught in prostitution, and uses btw the Old Testament law to justify stoning her: folks we live under Grace and Truth now via Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit...da' NEW Testament thank you Jesus lol GWooooooooooo Jesus+woooooooooo ha!:.
This is from the Gospel of John 8....:
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
