John 8
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him.
* * *
We see here Jesus brought before a heavy decision: will he disobey the
Law of Moses or will he participate in an unjust and impartial punishment?
Why was the sentence of the Pharisees unjust?
They picked on a small, probably poor, insignificant adulteress. But their very queen by the word of John the Baptist was living in an open and
willful act of adultery having married her husband's brother. Not only
that, but she murdered John the Baptist by proxy and through a scheme, causing him to be beheaded.
The Pharisees did not want to mess with a powerful adulteress, they
had no intention to end up like John the Baptist, so they selected a
small, insignificant, scapegoated adulteress whose punishment was
to serve as example and to enforce the fear of the Law of Moses.
But Jesus saw through all that: remember that only the adulteress
was brought to be stoned - she did not commit adultery alone and
by herself - she must have had a partner. The Law of Moses demands
that both the man and woman caught in adultery be stoned
(Leviticus 20:10).
Jesus did not dispute the political order nor had he demanded that
the man be brought to be stoned, too. No, his reply to the situation
was far more universal and transcendental: he said that he who is
without sin cast the first stone.
The crowds stood there with the woman caught in the act (obviously
not alone if it was adultery) and the power emanating from Jesus
started transforming the woman and the crowds. They started
dropping their stones intended to kill the woman and leave, starting
from the eldest.
Jesus saw this woman and he knew that very soon he will die for her
and her sin - so that she might live. Faced with this unconditional, transforming love beyond death, she has found something her lover
craving only her physical body and the thrill of the forbidden pleasure
could never have given.
Jesus told her: "Neither do I condemn you! Go and sin no more!"
Why is this? Did Jesus approve of adultery by being lenient towards
her? Should he given her three Holy Fathers at least?
But the Lord knew her heart and that she was transformed in that
contact with the living Son of Man. She no longer craved for the
puddle water in the "broken cistern that cannot hold water" of
sexual pleasures. Maybe she just wanted to stop when she was caught
in the first place - this is favoured Satan's scheme to encourage sin
and then act as the protector of holiness and purity just when someone decided to quit!
Jesus also had the gift to see what was in people's hearts (John 2:24),
so he saw in the woman's heart that she would sin no more. That's
why he could be so confident in love, while the Pharisees had to keep
the population in fear of death by stoning if they broke the Law of Moses.
Note that here Satan inspired Pharisees to act in defence of morality
and against sin! Is that so odd? We know that the spirit defying Son of Man was Satan, so how could he be against sin and against adultery?
This mystery is telling us that over the millennia Satan has learned
the Law of Moses very well, to the tiniest yota, and made it very complicated to understand adding thousands of Pharisee's rules and commandments,
while abolishing the very Ten Commandments (i.e. "Honour thy father and mother" was abolished if the allowance for parents was given as a holy gift to the synagogue and the profit of the Pharisees.)
The Pharisee said: "Who among the priests and rulers believed in this
man? But those crowds that knoweth not the Law, this is accursed!"
He failed to notice that the poor condition of the nation was his failure
to bring the Law of Moses and faith in God to the poor and the needy.
He was preoccupied with self-importance and social meetings with
the rich class and the rulers, missing his purpose right until he
probably joined those condemning innocent Jesus to death.
For Jesus's only fault was that he made people believe that they
can have salvation of God, food and healing for free.
Satan's primary goal is not to stop sin or even sexual immorality but
to separate men and women from God Creator. This is best done
by guilt and condemnation, as in the case of adulteress. Had she been
stoned, she would believe that God through the Law of Moses had
rejected her for good.
Jesus turned that into the opposite - the adulteress repented and
went into the Kingdom of Heaven, while the Pharisees condemned
very Messiah for the blasphemy he did not commit.
As Jesus knew that he is going to pay the ultimate price for this woman's mistake, he said to her: "Go and sin no more!" The account for sin had been paid soon enough, and the Cosmic scales of Justice were again balanced,
in a mysterious way unrevealed to mankind.
Jesus on the cross had undergone the suffering required for this sinning woman to become holy again and enter the Kingdom of Heaven, by his unconditional, transcendental love and her faith in him.
Why is the love transcendental - because it was nothing like the passion
she received from her partner in adultery. Having felt this love, she stopped craving for the former.
Unfortunately, we do not meet Jesus in person these days, not until his Second Coming. We can also only strive to reach the perfection of the Son
of Man, but we will never be conceived by the Holy Spirit, born by a virgin and lived our lives without the tiniest sin.
in the LORD
Amen

To some point you're right. While I cannot claim that I know perfectly the will of the LORD,
I know it better than those advocating the murder of unborn children, popularly known as "AB".
I believe that I am more "in the LORD" than those who practice theft, murder, adultery, false
witnessing and slander, envying and accusing people thereof being against the Church and
against the State.

My "idolatry of Rome" is limited to regarding the wisdom and authority of the bishop of Rome.
In some aspects, it exceeds mine, both in extent and experience.
For example, it is known that the Holy See will never agree to the State-controlled conception
of children for human farms, and this is why the System (The Beast 666) will hate the Harlot
of Babylon and destroy it. I have counted and I know that there are more secular pedophiles than
those of the church: but they are not persecuted nor reported because they are the "white persons".
Little wonder then the venom of vipers is upon your lips as self

Mistake not venom that is bitter when tasted and sweet when it brings fruit with the one

For one, you show the knowledge of the Holy Scriptures, but you still cannot see how
would they have anything to do with the protection of the unborn life?
When does the "Thou shalt not kill!" start to apply in your terms?
At the start of the heartbeat?
In "partial-birth abortion" when half of the baby's head is already delivered and then the
skull of the baby is pierced?
This is I guess the light that doesn't seem like Satan to you?
