OBEY JESUS IN EVERYTHING YOU DO SO THAT NATIONS WILL BE BLESSED THROUGH YOU

“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." - John 8:9

The teachers of the Law and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery to Jesus. They asked whether she could be stoned to death according to the Law given by Moses. Their motive was to trap Jesus and find a basis for accusing Him.

Jesus said to them that any one of them who has no sin can be the first to throw a stone at her. Bible clearly says that those who heard what Jesus said began to go away one at a time and only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 

In Matthew 23:27, Jesus Says, “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean."

In Matthew 23, Jesus condemns the hypocrisy of the scribes and Pharisees. He openly called them hypocrites, blind guides, blind fools and so on. It’s true that Pharisees and the teachers of the Law lived a life filled with hypocrisy. They used to show off themselves as holy ones.

That same group of teachers of the Law and Pharisees went away obeying Jesus when they heard Him saying, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”

They brought her to Jesus when He was in the temple courts. There were so many people around Him. They came to trap Jesus and accuse Him. Instead of standing there showing off themselves as the ones who has no sin and stone that woman disobeying Jesus, they went away without speaking anything accepting that they are also sinners. 

Though they are hypocrites, they obeyed Jesus on that time. That paved a way for Jesus to save and forgive the woman caught in adultery. Their obedience saved a life of a woman.

If those so called hypocrites obey Jesus in such a way accepting their sins in public, how much more we have to obey Jesus Christ when He command us to obey! 

My dear young friends, obey Jesus in everything you do. When He ask you not to stone anyone by your words or deeds, obey Him and don’t throw the stone. When He ask you to help someone, help them without asking Him anything further. If you obey Jesus in everything you do, He will be happy about your life and He will bless you. Through you nations will be blessed.
