Jesus Christ exemplified this powerful principle in the profound story of a woman caught in adultery. The scribes and Pharisees brought her before Him, declaring that Moses commanded them to stone her for her actions. While they were correct in their assertion, and Jesus would have been legally justified to agree, He chose a different path. Instead of responding immediately, He bent down and began writing in the sand.
As their questioning intensified, Jesus stood up and boldly declared, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.”
This moment encapsulates the essence of compassion over condemnation, offering us a timeless lesson on the importance of kindness.
