A third reason you may not want Jesus as your pastor

 

Yesterday we talked about thinking Jesus was too mean.

Some wouldn’t like Him for that reason.

Today, we swing the other direction.

John 8:7: So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

For others, He isn’t mean enough.

After all, the law of Moses states that adultery was punishable by stoning. Here is a lady caught in the very act. Here are a bunch of rocks. Let’s do this.

Jesus gives some speech about those without sin casting the first stone.

But my sin isn’t as bad as this woman. She should die.

Some people are looking for judgment to be dished out in heaping servings, but unfortunately for them, Jesus is a merciful savior.
