Bible Verse of The Day – 5-29-18

John 8:2-5 (NKJV) 2 Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. 3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, 4 they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?”

This woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. In the day of Moses, the law commanded that she should be stoned to death for this.

The Scribes and Pharisees wanted to see how Jesus would react to this situation.

Jesus’ reaction was not what they had expected. And many times, in our own personal walk with Him, His reaction to things may not be what we thought it would be.

That is why we must go to Him and get His advice and wisdom before we make our decisions. He may have a different outlook on things and a different answer.

When they brought this situation before Jesus, what did He do? He made them look at themselves first.

John 8:7 (NKJV) 7 So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.”

This is a good lesson for all of us. It will teach us to take a look at ourselves before we begin pointing fingers at others for their sins.

No one threw a stone at this woman. One by one, they all walked away. We should do the same. Walk away.

Matthew 7 (NKJV) 1 “Judge not, that you be not judged.
