John 8:1 - 27

Jesus faces a crowd of religious leaders who have supposedly caught a woman in the act of adultery.  They ask Jesus what should be done to her.  Jesus does not initially respond, but eventually suggests that anyone without sin be the first to begin punishing her.  When the accusers leave, Jesus instructs the woman to go her way, and to give up her sin.

As Jesus instructs His followers, He is often misunderstood.  He states He is the light of the world, and will soon leave for a destination unable to be followed.  Those listening are confused, wondering how He could choose a destination that was untracable.  Jesus was not talking about a destination on a map; but a place in eternity.  It IS impossible to follow Jesus, for no one is capable of the perfection He alone has.
