The Best Judgment Ever On The Earth

Praise the Lord because He is good and His mercy is forever. Today I would like to teach you about the best ever trial that took place on the earth, which would remain incomparable and no similar example can be found. Many among us must have heard about this incident. In the Gospel of John, chapter 8, it is written; The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery, made her stand before Jesus and said to Him; “What do you want us to do with her? Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?

Jesus listened to them and bent down and started writing on the ground. Then Jesus straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”  Jesus kept writing again on the ground with his finger.

Hearing this from Jesus all of them left that place one by one, and the lady was left standing alone in front of Jesus.

Jesus who has right to forgive the sins of human beings, who has right to condemn us and could order the execution of that woman, straightened up again and asked the woman where have they gone? Has no one condemned and stoned you?” “No one, Lord,” she said.

Jesus said; Then neither do I condemn you, Go now and leave your life of sin.

Dear friends, has anyone ever on the earth made such good judgment? Has anyone ever set such a beautiful example? Even the One who was sinless did not condemn and threw stone over her.

What we learn from this judgment is that Jesus doesn’t want to punish anyone; He wants everyone to confess his/her sin, repent, and be free from punishment.

Let us follow Jesus´ example. God bless you all.
