Subject: What did Jesus write in the sand? |
Bible Note: Justme I not arguing with you about what Jesus wrote in the sand because we just do not know. Let me just give you a thought. We often focus on the sand rather than the man. I wonder if being in the presence of righteousness was more convicting than anything Jesus wrote. I wonder if Jesus might just have been doodling letting the presence of a Holy God sink in and pierce their hearts. EdB |
