Is it ironic, paradoxical or just outright diabolical that we use this verse to justify judging others? Isn’t it what Jesus said to the woman right after he told the religious people not to judge her? Is it possible this statement indicates that her sin is between her and God? And isn’t it comfortingly amazing that just a few verses later He tells us “I judge no one.”?
Very good points here, Jim. Blessings to you, my friend!
Thank you Brian.
I like this a lot. It’s like Jesus is saying sin is not the issue, but Love is.
