Teacher, they said

to Jesus, this woman

was caught in the act
of adultery. 5The law
of Moses says to stone
her. What do you say?
4

Lev20:10 And the man that committeth adultery

with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery
with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress
shall surely be put to death.11Andthemanthatliethwithhis

The law was right because it was given by

God
The law makes believers incomplete while
trying so hard to fulfill it
Jesus didnt come to abrogate the law rather
to fulfill it by providing solution through grace
Where there is a law there is a fault &
punishment
No one is justified before the law

Psalm 19:7 the law of theLORDis perfect,

converting the soul: the testimony of
theLORDis sure, making wise the simple.
8The statutes of theLORDare right,
rejoicing the heart: the commandment of
theLORDis pure, enlightening the eyes.

Therefore by the deeds of the law there

shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by
the lawisthe knowledge of sin.Rom3:20
But when the fullness of the time came, God
sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born
under the Law, so that He might redeem
those who were under the Law, that we
might receive the adoption as sons."
(Galatians 4:4-5)

But the Scripture has shut up everyone

under sin, so that the promise by faith in
Jesus Christ might be given to those who
believe. But before faith came, we were
kept in custody under the law, being shut
up to the faith which was later to be
revealed. Therefore the Law has become
our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we
may be justified by faith. But now that faith
has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
For you are all sons of God through faith in
Christ Jesus. (Galatians 3:22-26)

They kept demanding an

answer, so he stood up again and
said,All right, but let the one
who has never sinned throw the
first stone!8Then he stooped
down again and wrote in the dust.
9When the accusers heard this,
they slipped away one by one,
beginning with the oldest, until
only Jesus was left in the middle
of the crowd with the woman.
John 8:7

Then Jesus stood up again and

said to the woman,Where are
your accusers? Didnt even one of
them condemn you? (because they
were guilty as well)
11No, Lord, she said.
And Jesus said,Neither do I. Go
and sin no more.

LAW: presents
the problem.
In the Law Moses
commanded us
to stone such
women. Now
what do you
say? John8:5

GRACE: Presents
solutiontothe
problem.
John 8:6
They were
trying to trap him into
saying something they
could use against him,
11 andJesus
said,NeitherdoI.Go
andsinnomore.

Grace work is done only through

Christ Jesus
Its unmerited favor
It binds the broken hearted
Grace works out the best in us
He that lives by grace has nothing to
worry about the law

Exodus 31:18 and he gave to Moses, when

he had finished speaking with him on
Mount Sinai, thetwo tablets of the
testimony, tablets of stone, written
withthe finger of God. John 8:6This they
saidto test him,that they might have
some charge to bring against him. Jesus
bent down and wrote with his finger on
the ground

and said neither do I condemn you, go

and sin no more. Rom8:2-4 For the
law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus
hath made me free from the law of sin
and death.3For what the law could
not do, in that it was weak through the
flesh, God sending his own Son in the
likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin,
condemned sin in the flesh:

4That the righteousness of the law might

be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the
flesh, but after the Spirit
To be sure, sin was in the world before the
law was given, but sin is not charged
against anyones account where there is no
law.14Nevertheless, death reigned from
the time of Adam to the time of Moses,
even over those who did not sin by
breaking a command, as did Adam, who is
a pattern of the one to come.

Rom3:24 and all are justified freely by

his grace through the redemption that
came by Christ Jesus
Romans 6:1,
What shall we say then? Shall we
continue in sin, that grace may abound?
14,For sin shall no longer be your
master, because you are not under the
law, but under grace.

Gift The judgment followed one sin

and brought condemnation, but the
gift followed many trespasses and
brought justification Rom 5:16b
Love for sinners 1 John 4:10
This is love: not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

The law was written on the stone and

grace was written on the ground
The God who wrote with his finger on
the stone is the same God who wrote
with his finger on the ground

The law says kill

her
The law says kill
her, you are not
qualified to live
Grace says I died
for her that she
may live
The law
condemns
Grace justifies

Grace is truth (Christ) restorative act of love free

gift to the world.
Jesus the lamb of God was crucified for
atonement of sin as to the law
Grace says I didnt come to give license or
baptize sin. i came to mediate not to condemn
(because grace is truth.)
The law want to trap you while grace sought to
deliver you
The law is a symbol of the old you

Grace is the symbol of the new you

The law is the tyrant in nature looking for
offense while grace is kind a triumphant
restorative act of love
Irrespective of whatever you have done
grace is available today and may not be
guaranteed tomorrow
