In the Gospel of John, Chapter 8, JESUS tells of a woman who was brought before HIM by the religious figures of that time, wanting to kill her for her sin of adultery. He challenges them to throw the first stone if they were without sin themselves. After a while they all left, except the accused woman, whom JESUS forgave and instructed to sin like that no more.
I wonder if, any of the accusers were changed by this event, I would hope so, however, I feel sure that the woman was changed and freed from her bondage to that sin.
You see, when we sin and fall short of GOD’S ways, we can ask to be forgiven and that sin is removed from our record and we are instructed to not repeat that sin again. It is a new start, and we can be at peace, changed and forgiven.
We will all sin again, as we are human, however, when we are forgiven and changed, we will not be guilty of past sins and we always have an advocate, for forgiveness of other sins. It is JESUS CHRIST, OUR LORD and SAVIOR and HIS sacrifice at Cavalry and Resurrection that has brought Life and will bring forgiveness for every sin that we will ever have. When we fall short and ask for forgiveness in HIS NAME, we receive and can walk in newness of life again.
Amazing Grace, how Sweet the Sound. HE saved a wretch like me.
