All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

To stone or not to stone ... is that really the question?

We often hear people quote Jesus about casting stones, He who is without sin cast the first stone. Jesus said it and it is true, but many misunderstand this comment and then misapply it when they use it to tell others not to address their sin. Jesus is not telling us to ignore sin, He is telling us that we are not to condemn people, yet at the same time we cannot, and He did not, condone sin. Stones where meant for killing, truth is given to save. When we address people with the truth it must be because we love them and do not want them to be separated from God for eternity. Love compels us to speak truth, not to condemn, but to save. For the same Word that tells us to not cast stones also states that God is the judge in front of whom all must give an account one day.

Lord Bless,
