3. Stone The Adulterous

3. Stone The Adulterous

Dead men walking, out for a thrill, trap set ready, they raided her home. Bedroom busted there she laid, in the arms of a lover, and her feet chained to Hades below. “Grab her” they shouted, with evil on their mind, to drag her sheet-wrapped body down Main boulevard, to be trialed.

Tears of terror stream down her painted face. Her anguished soul wishing, pleading, just once more, hugs and kisses, for her little ones, and a final farewell. Condemned to death without mercy that she knows, the stones of judgment will rain on her perfumed body. The Law of Moses pounding on her head, before departing her spirit and her last breath.

Now ready for the kill, they picked their stones. “Don’t be hasty boys, cool your anger. For today, they said: We need this adulterous witch to catch that holy man. Two birds of a feather, we will condemn them together. We have a much bigger fish to fry, and by nightfall to deliver both harlot and the son of man into the Reaper’s bloody hands.

This is not a Disney tale, blockbuster, or Parisian show, but a devious plot of religious clergy, conceived in the belly of hell, against the one called the king of the Jews, the long-awaited Messiah. To embarrass and to harm, to discredit and to shame, that Nazarene, what is his name? Their zeal for God, to please by sacrifice, even the spilling of innocent blood, a perfect substitute. With confidence in Moses and their evil schemes, they burst onto yet another scene. A packed audience listening to this prophet preaching of his Father’s kingdom and forgiveness, while doing good and healing the sick.

Master Teacher they shouted. Excuse our riotous intrusion, but our urgent matter demands your final approval. Here she is the adulterous kind, unfaithful to her promise and marriage vows, playing the harlot of our town. Lucky we were, just happen to be in her neighborhood. There she was, inviting to her wedding bed, a fornicator, and a fool, while her husband on business, is out of town.

Now Moses gave us Ten Commandments and the law (hypocrites by the letter knows them all, too well, their credentials, the splattered blood on their stonewashed walls). But you Jesus, friend of sinners, drunkards, tax collectors and of her kind, tell us, what do you say of our find? Drawing circles in the sand, he turned them a deaf ear, seeing into their evil hearts and wicked plan. But they persistent sought to record his every word.

Then Jesus, with fire in his eyes and the sword in his mouth, stunned even the cheering crowd, when he said, “Let him who is without sin, cast the first stone.” Silence fell, as the arms of her accusers, now lame with conscience guilt. Who could dare to condemn, but he alone who spoke those piercing words? Exposed and naked, they, one by one, slipped through the pressing crowd, convicted, and condemned, they became hypocrites on the run. If only they had turned at his reproof, he would have given them a second chance.

Then lingering, he gazed on the one lying prostrate by his side, shaken, and humiliated by the public outcry. Woman, he said, where are your accusers? Did no one cast his stone? With tears still streaming down her scarlet face, she lifted her head. And seeing none of them she replied, no my Lord, they all gone.

Then she gazed into his soul-searching eyes and perceived that he who stands before her, is far greater than Moses and the law, a fountain of life, and a rock of defense, to anyone who believes on his name. As he spoke to her heart yet again, his words like burning fire cleansing her sin-sick soul, “Neither do I condemn you, Go and sin no more.”

4. Porn-No-More

It was reported that there is sexual immorality among you, the kind that even pagans do not tolerate. You are proud of it, but should have gone into mourning, and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this? As one who is present with you, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. So, when you are assembled, and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved, on the day of the Lord. Your boasting is not good. I write to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people, excluding the immoral, greedy, swindlers or idolaters of this world, otherwise, you have to leave this world. But do not even eat with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister who is sexually immoral, greedy, an idolater, slanderer, drunkard, or a swindler. Expel the wicked person from among you. What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those on the inside? God will judge those on the outside. But he that lacks these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. So, give diligence to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall. For so an entrance will be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I remind you to put on these things, though you know them, and be established in the present truth. For the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God. Be not deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But now you are washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of God. All things are lawful to you, but not all things are good. All things are legal for you but do not be brought under the power of any. Food is for your belly, and the stomach for food, but God will destroy both. Your body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Know you not that your body is a member of Christ? Will you then make it a member of a harlot? God forbids. Whoever is joined to a harlot is one body with her. For the two, says He, will be one flesh. But he that is joined unto the Lord is of one spirit. Flee fornication for every sin a man does is outside the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body. What, know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which you have of God, and that you are not your own? For you are bought with a price. Now glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which belongs to God. You are the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you. Whoever defiles God’s temple, God will destroy. For the temple of God is holy, and you are his temple. Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. Follow peace with all men and holiness, without which no man will see the Lord. Looking diligently lest any man fails of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled. Lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For you know, how afterward when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected, but he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. So then as Christ suffered for you in the flesh, arm yourself likewise with the same mind. For he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin. That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. For in times past you did the will of the Gentiles, when you walked in lustful desires, drunk, partying, banqueting, and abominable idol practices. But they now think that you are strange that you are no longer run with them to the same excess of riot, and so speaking evil of you. Live ready to give account to Him that will judge the quick and the dead. For this cause was the gospel also preached to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh but live according to God in the spirit. But the end of all things is at hand. So be sober and watch in prayer.

Follow God, like dear children, and walk in love, as Christ also loved you, and has given himself for you as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance. But do not even mention fornication, uncleanness, and covetousness among yourselves as saints. Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient, but rather give thanks. For you know that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. Let no man deceive you with vain words, because of these things will the wrath of God come upon the children of disobedience. So be not partakers with them. For you were once in darkness, but now are you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth. Proving what is acceptable to the Lord, having no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all the things that are reproved, are made manifest by the light, for whatsoever are made manifest, is light. Having their eyes full of adultery that cannot cease from sin, beguiling unstable souls. And with hearts exercised with covetous practices, cursed children, they have forsaken the right way and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam, son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness. But he was rebuked for his iniquity by a dumb donkey speaking with man’s voice stopping the madness of the prophet. These are wells without water, and clouds carried with the storm, to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. For when they speak great
