   When using the immediate context and the Bible as a whole we discover   
   precisely what it was that Jesus was writing on the ground   
   as found in John 8.   
      
   Here we have the scribes and Pharisees bringing to Christ a woman they claim   
   they've caught in an act of adultery. Where is the   
   other party... the man ? Was this incident a set up from the start ? Was the   
   missing man one of their own ? And how is it that   
   since the penalty for adultery was death two people would be so careless as to   
   get caught in such an act ? Lev.20:10... if this   
   incident happened at all ?   
      
   Being caught in an act of adultery is not something easily discovered... this   
   is something done with prudent care so as not to be   
   caught... the whole incident was created by the scribes and Pharisees to catch   
   Jesus in an act of deceit against God as Christ's   
   writing on the ground indicates.   
      
   Christ Jesus was not of the tribe of Levi but of Judah, Rev.5:5, and was not   
   qualified by the Law given through Moses to have   
   authority to pass judgment, De.17:9; Jn.12:47; Lk.19:10 at this time.   
   Obviously, the scribes and Pharisees sought an easy way to   
   convict Jesus so to have righteous cause to put Him to death, De.17:9-12, and   
   to disprove that Jesus is indeed the Promised   
   Messiah when proved He wasn't by this trap they set... if the trap worked, the   
   religious leaders could go merrily on their way   
   continuing their high lifestyles as in Mt.15 of which Christ publicly   
   condemned shaming them. We see also that the Lord Jesus   
   would be required to be among those stoning this woman to death, De.17:7   
   context.   
      
   So then, what did Jesus write on the ground during this incident ? According   
   to the immediate context and the context of the Bible   
   as a whole, He was writing the whole passage of Holy Scripture these scribes   
   and Pharisees conveniently left out by their bringing   
   only the woman allegedly caught in the act of adultery, namely De.22:22.   
      
   Likewise, apostate Christians are guilty of the same approach when they   
   evidence in their preaching that " Salvation is an   
   individual choice." They build their case on quoting Jn.1:12 while deleting   
   Jn.1:13 to which it is attached... precisely the same   
   approach of the scribes and Pharisees of Jn.8. So doing perfectly fits the   
   scheme that fallen man fills the condition of first   
   " accepting Jesus " so as to successfully invoke Him to save. Jn.1:13 condemns   
   such a scheme but this passage of 1:13 simply will   
   not do... apostate Christendom *Must* pervert the plain teaching of Holy   
   Scripture in order to collect their haughty boast that   
   they've been so righteous to have made that " individual choice " spurning   
   Ro.3:10 and following and 8:7,8 against themselves as   
   they do... the fallen men of Christendom thus save themselves being they   
   themselves acquit each other of the sins binding all   
   fallen men, Eph.2:1-3; 1 Jn.5:19, but not as these sins in these passages bind   
   them.   
      
   Today's apostate Christendom is well spoken of in Holy Scripture as to how it   
   will go apostate, 2 Tim.4:3,4 and 2 Thes.2:1-12 and   
   Mt.24 for example. They've become master's at ignoring Ro.3:10 and following   
   but they go ahead anyway lying to other fallen of men   
   that to become redeemed is a thing men must do first if ever they are to be   
   redeemed, second. While the fallen Christians preach   
   " God loves everybody," fully contrary to Ps.5:4-6, they themselves can not   
   see that their condition filling gospel's are designed   
   for the smart, only. Those suffering from debilitating mental disorder's have   
   no gospel's of condition filling designed for them   
   by apostate Christians... unless they want to lie even more and say the   
   mentally challenged are automatically redeemed because   
   they are not smart enough to make this " individual choice " as today's   
   apostate Christians can and do...such means redemption is   
   conditional while it is unconditional... Situational Theology.   
      
   The bottom line is simply that God has already called His elect ones out of   
   all the churches of Christendom Rev.18; Jer.51, being   
   their polluted gospel's of condition filling has made the free gift of Ro.5 a   
   thing to be earned by filling conditions...   
   " Salvation is an individual choice " means Christ suffered and died in the   
   place of the very same persons who will never desire   
   to make that choice... now, they must burn in Christendom's hell where no one   
   ever really dies...even though Christ, they tell us,   
   died for them.. another of their lies countering the Word of God who decreed   
   in ages past..." The wages of sin death." Ro.6:23a...   
   not eternal life, in hell.
