To remove sins
by Sarah Wootten Corinth Missionary Baptist Church
The stones were practically in their hands. The Pharisees and the scribes brought a woman who had been caught in adultery to Jesus. They reminded Jesus that the law of Moses demanded her death as a punishment. Jesus stayed silent for a few moments, but eventually said that whoever has no sin of his own should be the first person to throw a stone at her. One by one, each of the accusers went away until no one was left. Jesus asked her if anyone condemned her. She said no. Then Jesus replied with these words, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more,” (John 8:11, ESV).
