When Shame Meets Grace
When Shame Meets Grace Part I
September 22, 2019 • Van N. Houser
The Scribes and Pharisees were out to get some charge on which they could discredit Jesus. They brought to Him a woman taken in adultery in an attempt to trap Him. But Jesus turned their attack in such a way that it recoiled against themselves. What they do is trap themselves so that both they and the woman are caught red-handed in their sin. But Jesus is able to demonstrate the characteristics of real authority and grace.
