Today's passage is a go and sin no more passage. In other words, it's best read in light of the whole story told in the gospel, the whole story told in scripture that Jesus has entered into your shame with you. As a matter of fact, he has taken your shame on himself. Yet, because he still hates the sin that has caused you your shame in the first place, he is going to call you to be done with it. With that now canceled sin, leave that old life behind, go and sin no more.
