John 8:4-11
New King James Version
4 they said to Him, "Teacher, [a]this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now [ b ]Moses, in the law, commanded us [c]that such should be stoned. But what do You [d]say?" 6 This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, [e]as though He did not hear.

7 So when they continued asking Him, He [f]raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first." 8 And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 Then those who heard it, being[g] convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had raised Himself up [h]and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?"

11 She said, "No one, Lord."

And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go [j]and sin no more."

I know the message is against hypocrisy, but whenever I've read that it's always seemed to me that it is also saying...if other people are doing wrong, your own wrongdoing can be overlooked. Like if you're a bank robber, you should associate with killers, so you won't be held accountable for your lesser crime. Also, if we are not told the woman repented, why did she merit forgiveness? Mercy, I guess? Thank God (literally) for mercy.

On a lighter note, I've also thought the cheating whore was also lucky Jesus' mom wasn't around, holding a rock, eh?  Now there's a woman without sin. :wink:

Happy Good Friday, everyone! Remember, no one comes to the father, save through Jesus, and today marks the act which made that coming to the father possible. I may not comprehend many of the mysteries of faith, but I do accept that the miraculous events of Holy Week did happen as we were told. If anyone can show otherwise, I will stop believing, but no one ever has.
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

---Some red-haired chick who sang that when I was eight.
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

I never wanted
I never needed
I never begged
And I never pleaded
To a god unknown
That I won't let in
Cos religion is business
And there's money in sin
You're blind and offended
When reality hurts
But I've never seen Jesus
Inside a church
And I've prayed
I won't pay to be saved
Buying a brief burst of heaven
Immaculate deceptions
Going on everyday
Still you follow the clowns
Who give the circus away
Reaching for something
That's never been felt
And they're tightening their grip
On your bible belt
Dead eye disciples
Who sin too deep
Jesus loves you
But his love don't come cheap
And you pray
Yeah, you pray to be saved
Buying a brief burst of heaven
I never wanted
I never needed
I never begged
And I never pleaded
Pained by beliefs
Of lies and deceits
When cash must be shown
To this god unknown
And we pray
We're too frightened to stray
Buying a brief burst of heaven
Jesus loves you
But I don't
Jesus loves you
But I don't
Jesus loves you
Kill your idols
Religion induced insanities
Pained by beliefs
Pained by beliefs
That I don't believe anymore

The Almighty.

Jesus Loves You...
But I Don't.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.
