As Pastor Dan will explain in today’s message, according to the law given in Deuteronomy, if someone was guilty and convicted of a sin deserving of death, the person who brought the accusation was to throw the first stone. After that, the rest of the community would join in throwing stones till the punishment was complete. Such a gruesome system. It’s shocking to us, but it demonstrates the weight of not only the sin but also the serious responsibility that rested on the accuser.
