Domino! I believe that we all played with these similar, numbered little rectangles, then getting bored with the classic game of dominoes , we place the small rectangles , side by side so that with one movement we could demolish the whole contraption ! The evil spirit plays the same way with us as well, he is not satisfied by one sin he would like that from one mistake , one fault many will result and does everything for this so that the turmoil of sin tears away the victim , dragging the fallen man and his surrounding deeper and deeper. Unfortunately this is how one lie will lead to more and more , and more and more painful , from a sinful relationship an abortion then even a desperate suicide ! Jesus does not condemn the struggling person in the spiral of sin rather frees them ! He is our Redeemer , that is why He speaks gently to the man caught in adultery :“Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.”
A soccer team if they get a goal can collapse from the setback can fall into a heap, collapse and the enemy can score as many points points as they see fit ! In case if the team that lost a point does not come to a sudden standstill , ashamed giving up everything does not let any possible chances they get to go by the wayside , but trusting in each other,- with hope raise above defeat- they have every chance to turn around the game that is slipping away , they can win with their successful, nice play !
To all of us who sinned our Lord Jesus Christ has the same message : “ I do not condemn you . Go, but sin no more!” Go, and prove it that the goodness , love, endurance you possess is capable defeat evil ! Show triumphantly to everyone that you were created by my heavenly Father , who does not create rejects, bad, inferior people ! Go and conquer , I trust in you , you can do it , you are capable , firmly to carry your task to a satisfactory ending , I stand by your side , you can reach your most beautiful dream !
With love ,
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
While Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 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. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them, they said to him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” 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. 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.” And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. 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. Jesus straightened up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, sir.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.”
John 8, 1-11
