Did Jesus publicly shame the woman into obedience, as you say is the Biblical way?

Did He publicly shame the woman at the well?

The woman who washed His feet with her tears and dried them with her hair?

Mary Magdalene?

I’m trying to find even one instance where Jesus did what you claim is the “Biblical” approach on the mortal sin of sexual immorality, and I’m not finding it. The harshest words and actions of Jesus were reserved for the unrepentant, holier-than-thou, hypocritical Pharisees who laid heavy burdens on the people and did nothing to help them lift it. Jesus was known as a “friend of sinners” - hated by the Pharisees because He didn’t shame and shun the whores and tax collectors but actually ate with them and acted as if they too had human dignity. And they loved Him for it, and came to salvation.

That’s the happy ending I want. And I’m going to keep trusting that Jesus knew how to do things right. You can keep emulating the Pharisees but I’ll stick with Jesus, thank you.

I am appalled at this thread. Read it when it was a new post with only a few comments and figured this would happen.

Thank you for showing true Christianity & kindness:)
