Hang in there on this one as I have some challenging questions to ask you.
Have you ever? 1) Lied to keep yourself from getting in trouble? 2) Allowed someone to believe something that isn't true because it benefited you? 3) Have you ever cheated on anything (i.e. taxes, tests, etc.)? 4) Have you ever cheated on someone? 5) Have you ever been drunk and got behind the wheel to drive? 6) Have you ever broken any laws (speeding perhaps), and didn't get caught? 7) Have you ever stolen anything (i.e. candy, money, supplies from work, etc.)?
I only bring this up to remind us of a very important life lesson and that is no one is without sin. We're all messed up bigly! Jesus' parable about stopping the village from stoning the adulteress to death (not the man, but the woman), is one of his greatest. His message being clear in his teachings that we need to work on ourselves first and foremost, before we can help others. And to judge not, lest we be judged. Which I don't know about you, but I find this truth to be very scary.
