Who Condemns us?

3/27/2018

John 8:4-11 (KJV) 4  They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5  Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6   This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 7  So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 8  And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9  And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10  When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 11   She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Who condemns us? God does not condemn us neither does Jesus or the Holy Ghost. All the way through the Bible God shows us that he loves us and wants us to spend eternity in Heaven with him, Jesus and the Holy Ghost.

Now we are convicted by our own conscience, our sense of right and wrong, and we were taught the difference between right and wrong from the time we were toddlers all the way to the present. First by our family, then by those placed in authority over us, teachers, police officers, politicians, even our bosses.

We condemn, convict and send ourselves to hell. All Jesus does is forgives us of our sins and tells us to “go and sin no more.”
