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.

Chia sẻBut Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning He went back into the temple courts. All the people came to Him, and He sat down to teach them. The scribes and Pharisees, however, brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before them and said, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such a woman. So what do You say?” They said this to test Him, in order to have a basis for accusing Him. But Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with His finger. When they continued to question Him, He straightened up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her.” And again He bent down and wrote on the ground. When they heard this, they began to go away one by one, beginning with the older ones, until only Jesus was left, with the woman standing there. Then Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are your accusers? Has no one condemned you?” “No one, Lord,” she answered. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Now go and sin no more.”
