The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this presentation, Steve Gregg explores the well-known biblical story of the woman taken in adultery. While some scholars argue that the passage probably wasn't written by John, but rather by one of the synoptic gospel writers, Gregg believes that it is an authentic story of Jesus. He points out that Jesus affirmed capital punishment for crimes worthy of death in a civil sense but also taught a radical new teaching that looked tantamount to adultery. Gregg also highlights the authenticity of the passage by noting Jesus' use of Old Testament scripture to reveal hypocrisy among the accusers.
