A powerful Bible story about mercy, forgiveness, and repentance.

In John 8:1–11, religious leaders bring a woman caught in adultery before Jesus, hoping to condemn her. But Jesus responds with words that change the entire situation.

"Let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone."

One by one, her accusers leave. Jesus refuses to condemn her and instead gives her an opportunity to change her life.
