Have you ever felt so upset with yourself for the some things that you know you shouldnt do but still do? I did. Well, Peter and Judas did too. The only difference is one choose to rely on his own, which led him to death; The other choose to rely on Grace, which led him to life.
Only by grace can I enter
Only by grace can I stand
Not by my human endeavour
But by the blood of the Lamb
Isaiah 1:18
"Come now, let us reason together," says the Lord, "though your sins are like scarelet, they shall be white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool."
God's Riches At Christ Expense- The Power of the Cross
John 8
A Woman Caught in Adultery
Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, 2 but early the next morning he was back again at the Temple. A crowd soon gathered, and he sat down and taught them. 3 As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd.
4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”
6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.
9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”
11 “No, Lord,” she said.
And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.”
Thank You Lord for Your Grace
