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" (John 8:7).
Sin - something we
are all to familiar with. No it is not anything we should be proud of
or boast about, yet we all fall short of His glory and are guilty of sin
(Romans 3:23).
In this verse, there
was a woman found guilty of adultery which was then punishable by
stoning her to death. What a horrible way to die. If we all had to
stand before God this day, and answer for what we have done to others
whether it be by action, word, and/or thoughts, where would we stand?
I raise this question because lately I have heard over and over again
that Church Folks can be some of the most critical people you will
find.
I don't know about you, but I
surely do not accept that label and we need to change that mind set! I
am not going to stand here and say that I have not been guilty of some
shape or form of this, but I am praying that myself and others take
responsibility and start acting in a more Christian manner. Jesus
Christ himself stood before this crowd and guarded this woman from her
punishment.
He stand before you, He stands
before I, and He is standing before each and everyone around us
guarding us from the punishment we rightfully deserve.
So please, my Sisters, my
Brothers lets start acting like our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
He came to give us life - it is your Christian responsibility to bring
folks to Christ and not throw stones.
Have a blessed and glorious day. Ya Dig?...
