Freed by God’s Forgiveness December 13

Remember the time … What was the funniest time you were caught “red-handed”? With God we will always be found out – We deserve punishment – But God forgives!

Listen for a trap. John 8:2-6 (NIV) At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus,

Listen for a trap. "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" 6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger.

God is Judge, Not Us What did Jesus sit down to do in the temple courts? Whom did the Pharisees bring before Jesus? How was this a trap? How did Jesus respond to the Pharisees’ question? Why do you think He did this? Which sins do we tend to categorize as “big” sins (those that are worse than all others)?

God is Judge, Not Us Which sins do you think God classifies as “big” sins? Why do we tend to hope some people will be caught in their sin? Why is it necessary for sin to be punished? How should we treat people who have sinned?

Listen for Jesus’ response. John 8:7-9 (NIV) When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." 8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there.

None Is Without Sin Jesus said, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone” Why do you think Jesus responded this way? How did the Pharisees respond to Jesus’ challenge? They are said to have left oldest to youngest. What do you think was the significance of this ordering?

None Is Without Sin Why is it sometimes easier to see others’ sins more than our own? About what do we tend to be self-righteous? How should Jesus statement in verse 7 influence our everyday actions and attitudes?

Listen for Jesus response to the woman. John 8:10-11 (NIV) Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" 11 "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."

God Forgives by His Grace What are Jesus’ comments to the lady after they are gone? Why might she have felt a sense of relief on the one hand but of concern on the other? Think about a time when you got a second chance, a chance to start over. How did it make you feel? ReliefConcern

God Forgives by His Grace What was the heart of Jesus’ message for the woman? What opportunities do we have to extend God’s grace instead of condemnation? What is the relationship between forgiveness and right living?

Application Confess your sin – Is a certain sin of yours weighing on you mind and spirit? – Confess … agree with God, “this is sin” – Receive by faith His forgiveness and strength to turn away from this action or attitude

Application Forsake condemnation – Do you find yourself hoping someone will “really pay for what they did”? – Ask God to search your heart for a spirit of condemnation – Respond to what God shows you, seek His forgiveness

Application Be an agent of forgiveness – Condemnation can destroy relationships – Offer yourself to God this week as His instrument to bring forgiveness and reconciliation to a relationship that is broken
