Jesus Judgement Is Unfair

Decent Essays
I never understand why the Pharisees kept testing Jesus even after following him around seeing his miracles and listening him teach. They must have fully know the nature of Jesus but then are surprised that he accepts the sinner even when in chapter 4 where Jesus fully establish unity in all who repent and follow him. However, I am confused why the women faced no comdtionshin or judgment because in the passage she never asked for forgiveness. Im also confused on why it yes that Jesus judgment is true because it is from him and the father (John 8:16) , yet back in John 5 it says that God judges no one but has given the authority to Jesus to judge (John 5:22).

    The Gospel of John is unlike any other gospel in the New Testament, considering the symbolic ways it presents the story of Jesus, even changing aspects of major events such as the resurrection of Christ (White, 1998). What makes the Gospel of John so distinctive, however, is the way it approaches the Jews - a way that viewers had never seen prior. In fact, a lot of people that have studied the Gospel of John agree that it is anti-Jewish or anti-Semitic for many reasons that can be justified within the text. Calling the Gospel of John anti-Jewish may sound extreme, especially since we are observing the story of Jesus, but once the historical background of this time is taken into…

    Even after the beating, being mocked, and while he on the cross, Jesus in a profound love says “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). This would be when Jesus meets with the goddess because for anyone to go through that type of excruciating pain and mental abuse and still ask for the forgiveness of others is only driven by an infinite love. While Jesus is crucified the crowd continues to mock his godliness by shouting to him “…you who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself, and come down from the cross!” (Mark 15:29-30) and “… He saved others; he cannot save himself”.…
