He who is without sinHe who is without sin

Jesus saw a crowd chasing down a woman tostone her and approached them.

"What's going on here, anyway?" he asked.

"This woman was found committing adultery,and the law says we should stone her!" one of the crowd responded.

"Wait," yelled Jesus. "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Suddenly, a stone was thrown from out of the sky,and knocked the woman on the side of her head.

Jesus Cries out! :"Aw, c'mon, Dad... I'm trying to make a point here!"
