Margo's Bible Verses August 29th

On this date, August 29th, Margo was reading in the gospel of John 8:1--11 titled "Jesus Forgives an Adulterous Woman" and in I Timothy 6:6--12 titled "True Riches".

Margo didn't underline any verses in the gospel of John, but she did underline some sentences in the commentary. To provide some context I'll list some of the important verses and then the underlined sentences from the commentary:

John 8: "3 :The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4:and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5:In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" 6: They were using this question as a trap...but Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7: When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."...9: At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first,...10: Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"
11: "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."

Here's what Margo underlined in the commentary:
...But by saying that only a sinless person could throw the first stone, He highlighted the importance of compassion and forgiveness...It is God's role to judge, not ours. Our role is to show forgiveness and compassion.


These are the underlined verses in I Timothy:

Paul writing "10: For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs...11: But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love , endurance and gentleness. 12:Fight the good fight of the faith."

In the commentary on I Timothy she underlined:

"(1) REALIZE THAT ONE DAY RICHES WILL ALL BE GONE; (2) BE CONTENT WITH WHAT YOU HAVE; (3) MONITOR WHAT YOU ARE WILLING TO DO TO GET MORE MONEY; (4) LOVE PEOPLE MORE THAN MONEY; (5) LOVE GOD'S WORK MORE THAN MONEY; (6) FREELY SHARE WHAT YOU HAVE WITH OTHERS."
