John 8 Part 1: The Light of the World stumps the religious leaders and really ticks them off


Listen Later

In this episode we'll look at two encounters between Jesus and the Pharisees. The first is a controversial set of verses where a woman caught in adultery is brought before Jesus by the religious leaders with the intentions of trapping Jesus. In a brilliant move Jesus follows the law and extends grace. In the second scene Jesus claims to be the Light of the World and the Pharisees just cannot grasp who He is, where He is from, and where He is going. The tension between Jesus and the established, inner religious circle continues to mount.  But Jesus models how to respond in love and in grace and in the midst of this we have to ask ourselves once again - do we really believe Jesus is who He says He is?
