““For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”
John 3:17 NKJV
God sent His Son to save us, not condemn us. If Jesus Himself does not condemn, then how can I? Imagine the scene of the sinner woman being condemned by the Pharisees and Jesus saving her instead. Is this scene being repeated today? Am I a Pharisee with a proverbial stone, ready to condemn? Let us remember that Jesus came to save the sinner woman, my difficult colleague, my friend I am in dispute with, my family member, my boss, my neighbor. And me.”
