John 8:1-11 Year C - 5th Sunday of Lent
Go, and now sin no more.

1 while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them.
3 The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them,
4 they said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.
5 Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?"
6 They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.
7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."
8 And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground.
9 When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.
10 Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"
11 She said, "No one, sir." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again."] (NRSV)

Inspiration of the Holy Spirit - From the Sacred Heart of Jesus

There is nothing uglier in the sight of God than sin. The price of all your sins was paid by Me with my sufferings and death on the cross.

I am the sacrificial Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, for this reason I came to the world to forgive even the hardest sinners. When this woman in the gospel was caught committing adultery, those around her were filled with condemnation. They put my compassion to the test but I demonstrated my mercy while at the same time reminded them that all men are sinners.

I do not look at appearances; I look straight into the heart. I see the sins of the world, but as a doctor who desires to cure his patients I ardently desire the salvation of all men. It is very sad to look at a person harming himself, yet this is what I see in all of you when you sin. I see how you try so hard to kill your souls daily and it grieves my heart that so many ignore my divine healing.

Salvation begins with repentance, which is the key to the spiritual life. Once the person begins that change of heart, my grace is given access into his soul and I start my work.

When will you understand that I want to help you? For your own good, give up your sinful life, go and sin no more.
