OKAY, HE THAT IS WITHOUT SIN....

Where did Jesus just spend last night alone?   Where He will one day stand in judgment - on the Mount of Olives!                                                                           
So will He head off home to Galilee in disgust and save His skin? (Jn ch8)
No, He goes back into the city to try again…to the temple…as a sitting target for those out to kill Him.  Where He is hated and persecuted, He teaches the people!

A’hah! Here’s a challenge - a woman caught red-handed in adultery....                   

Oooo…this is going to be interesting!... but where’s the man?...who are the witnesses?  Stone her and you break Roman Law… but don’t stone her and you break Jewish Law.

“We’ve got Him now! Hey Jesus are you deaf or what? Why are you writing on the ground and not paying attention? Stuck for an answer, huh?  This is serious you know!”

“He that is without sin…let him first cast a stone at her”

O’oh…we’ve all broken God’s rules – except for this Man.

“Go and sin no more”  (Maybe she represents unfaithful Israel?)

Now they accuse the only sinless Man of dishonesty!...after He has produced double witness to His authority.

John has told us that Jesus was full of grace and truth…in fact, overwhelming grace...like now.
What about that True Light? (In this feast, large lamps were lit for all night dancing and praising)....
“I AM the Light of the world…the light of life”                                   
(The 2nd ‘I AM the…’ in John’s gospel)
Who can stand this Light?

Did you notice how Jesus keeps saying “ego eimi” or “I am…“?                                        

Perhaps Jesus is the great ‘I AM’....NEXT
