Jesus gives light to those who follow him.

If you go on your own path, you walk in darkness.

Dr. Tony Evans shares the power of walking and step with Jesus.

Those who are Jesus' true disciples, you're following Him, will not walk in darkness.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

Walk into a dark room, flip on the light switch, and suddenly everything hidden comes into view.

That's just what light does. Scripture tells us that Jesus is the light of the world, and in today's

lesson, Dr. Evans explores what happens when we embrace that truth and allow God to illuminate our

understanding of the world around us. Let's join him in the book of John. We begin chapter 8 with

the famous story of the woman caught in adultery. Jesus is at the

Mount of Olives in verse one. He comes to the temple and begins to teach. In verse two, the scribes

and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery and having set her in the center of the court.

So she's been put on blast and on display.

They say to Jesus, who's been teaching, teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery in the very act.

So she's been found out. In the law of Moses,

it commands us to stone such women. What do you say? The key to all this is verse six. and they were saying this to test him.

Okay, so let's talk about what the test was.

The test was, this is what the law says, because Jesus is teaching.

This is what the Bible says, that when you catch a person doing this, that better be stoned. So if Jesus doesn't agree

to stoner, he's violating the law of Moses. If he agrees the stoner, then he's not showing mercy.

So the idea is to trap him either in condemning the woman to death or violating the law of Moses

or not showing her the grace and forgiveness.
