2. Jesus, Our Gracious Forgiver
Will He forgive me? An adulterous woman finds forgiveness instead of condemnation. Did you know in Jesus' culture adultery was a capital offense? When the religious leaders brought the woman to Jesus they were testing him. Instead of condemning the woman for her sin Jesus forgave her. When Jesus asked those who had never sinned to throw the first stone the religious leaders were reminded that they were also sinners.
