Neither does He condemn you
9And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. ( John 8:1-11 )
Everybody in the crowd left without condemning the woman because they were convicted by their own conscience. In the same chapter Jesus asks
Which of you convinceth me of sin? ( John 8:46 )
Jesus had the right to condemn her but He did not! Are you following that example from our Lord? Or do you condemn people assuming a false sense of righteousness while doing it? Jesus says
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven ( Luke 6:37 )
If you condemn others you can be sure that you will live a life of condemnation no matter how much ever you confess your sins to the Lord. But Jesus said
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. ( John 3:17 )
If you don't condemn others you can be sure that Jesus too does not condemn you but He will set you free from your sins.
Prayer: Dear Lord, please forgive me for the times I have condemned others and help me to follow your example.
