Questions Jesus Asked Part 7 – Jesus asks profound questions to reach your heart and to grow your understanding of His character. In John 8, while Jesus is teaching in the Temple, the Jewish religious leaders bring a woman caught in the act to the feet of Jesus as part of a brilliant trap to discredit His authority. Will Jesus uphold the Law, which leads to capital punishment, or condone the woman’s sin? Don’t miss a powerful and life-altering story revealing God’s heart for you and His mighty plan of redemption to cleanse us of our sin and guilt. If you’ve ever wondered if Jesus can forgive you for what you’ve done listen to Pastor David Menard’s sermon, Questions Jesus Asked Part 7, where you will find freedom from the bondage of sin and the love of a Savior who eliminates all your accusers!
GUILT DESTROYS LIVES
WHEN JESUS SPEAKS LIVES ARE TRANSFORMED
“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, because the LORD has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.

A brilliant plan to trap Jesus:
• Would Jesus condemn the woman and uphold the Mosaic law?
• Or would He evade the issue and by doing so condone the woman’s sin?
Jesus heals our life by:
1: FORGIVING US OF ALL OUR SINS
2: CLEANSING US OF ALL OUR GUILT
3: REMOVING ALL OF OUR ACCUSERS
“All we like sheep have gone astray (from God); we have turned, every one, to his own (sinful) way; and the LORD has laid on Him (Jesus) the iniquity of us all.”
Isaiah 53:6 NKJV https://www.blueletterbible.
“If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns?”
