4 Things I Wish You Knew About God – Part 2

Part 2 - God Is Compassionate.

What do you think about God and what do you think He thinks about you? John 8:2-12 (NIV) 2 At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” 8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” 11 “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.” 12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” We are all SINNERS. We are all GUILTY. Romans 3:23 (NIV) For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. John 3:17 (NIV) For God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Jesus STOOPS DOWN low, and RAISES you up high. John 8:7-8 (NIV) 7 When they kept on questioning Him, He straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” Again, He stooped down and wrote on the ground. SELF-RIGHTEOUS Christians carry stones. John 8:12 (NIV) Again, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”   ------------ This message is presented by Access Church in Lakeland and Brandon Florida.
