Throwing Stones or Extending Grace
“And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her."”John 8:7 In a world where opinions can go viral minutes after they’re posted, and social media debates go from zero to 100 in a hot second, it’s wise to remember to be like Jesus both online and offline. Jesus wasn’t afraid to call out sin, but He did it in the context of grace and relationship. So, posting about problems is probably not going to lead to resolution. But standing up for someone who can’t stand up for themselves? That’s close to the heart of Jesus. Instead of debating with people, We should start by extending grace, reminding people that their mistakes can be redeemed. And then we help people realize that there’s a better way to live through following Jesus. So stand up for those who can’t stand up for themselves. Stand up for the people the world rejects. Stand up for the overlooked and the outcasts. And don’t just stand up, get ready to serve.Serving matters a great deal to God. And it doesn’t matter if we say we love God if we don’t love His people by serving them well. Be Nice. Grace wins,
