About This Quote

In the Bible, Jesus tells a story about a woman who has been caught in adultery. He asks her why she has been caught, and she answers that it is because “the man I have been with does not belong to me” (John 8:11). She says, “No one can stay the way they are and go with God” (1 John 3:16 NLT). This verse is telling us that we cannot stay who we are and go with God. If we want to go with God, we must change.
