YOU ARE NOT CONDEMNED:
Dear Child of the most high God.
There is no condemnation once you are made righteous by the blood of CHRIST and walking not by the flesh but by the spirit.
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

And one more truth, I would like your eyes to be opened to.

LIFE APPLICATION 3:
One more deeper REVELATION in this meditation...
1. What was Christ writing on the ground?
2. Why did everyone who came to stone the woman left from the eldest to the last?
It is CHRIST who sits on the judgement seat and has the authority to pass judgement.
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
2 Corinthians:5:10
The WORD of GOD says,
Those that forsake the living waters of CHRIST their names will be written on the earth and they shall be ashamed.
O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.

Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.
Ezekiel:9:6
The judgement of God begins in his sanctuary and begins with The eldest.
Jesus passed on the judgement at the men who came to stone the woman. He wrote their names from eldest to the last on the earth as per the scripture above. That is why their conscience judged them wrong and they all left.
Dearly beloved, Christ is light. So if we are still In the dark, Let us come to the light of Christ and live. Amen..
