Jesus Knows Our Weaknesses and Heals Our Spiritual Maladies that Lead to Eternal Death ㅡ
“When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.” (John 8:10-11)
The woman had stood before Jesus, cowering with fear.
His words, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone,” had come to her as a death sentence.
She dared not lift her eyes to the Saviour’s face, but silently awaited her doom.
In astonishment she saw her accusers depart speechless and confounded; then those words of hope fell upon her ear,
“Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.” Her heart was melted, and she cast herself at the feet of Jesus, sobbing out her grateful love, and with bitter tears confessing her sins.
This was to her the beginning of a new life, a life of purity and peace, devoted to the service of God.
In the uplifting of this fallen soul, Jesus performed a greater miracle than in healing the most grievous physical disease; He cured the spiritual malady which is unto death everlasting.
This penitent woman became one of His most steadfast followers.
With self-sacrificing love and devotion she repaid His forgiving mercy.
While He does not palliate sin, nor lessen the sense of guilt, He seeks not to condemn, but to save.
The world had for this erring woman only contempt and scorn; but Jesus speaks words of comfort and hope.
The Sinless One pities the weakness of the sinner, and reaches to her a helping hand.
