THAT, is your basis of morality? Just THAT?

Only ONE is perfect. ALL the rest of us are varying degrees of immoral.

John 8:7

“.... He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. (him)

Are YOU that person?

That’s not how this works. God tells sinful people to look at other people and call it sin.

Case in point, 1 Cor. 5. In the Corinthian church, one of the men was sleeping with his stepmother. Paul made the judgment from the other side of the sea and told the church to remove the man from fellowship. Sinners throwing out a sinner. See also Matt. 18:15-20.

John the Baptist called out Herod for marrying his brother’s wife. John was a sinner, but he was right in confronting the king.

Jesus never taught to never judge. He simply told people to take the log out of their own eye first. He was not saying NEVER judge; he told them to make their own accounts right first.

Just then, from the back of the crowd, a single stone comes whizzing through the air and catches the poor girl square on the nose.

"MOMMMMMM! Cut that out!"
