Also keep in mind its one thing if you are judging someone based on their actions versus judging them for their humanity. We can judge people based on their actions as we see this in law daily, but to judge someone because of an innate human quality is for God to decide. We can site examples of the Bible as to what God judges, but we ourselves can not judge people based on their humanity.
Ok, does what you're saying pertain to the situation of Jesus protecting the woman caught in adultery?
According to Law (which was still in full effect, Jesus was obeying the Law), adultery was punishable by death. Yet He had her life spared.
There are different positions on why Jesus spared her - some are, we cannot impose physical judgment any longer on moral issues/sins...
others are, they were setting the woman up to be caught in the adultery and Jesus would't let them take her life for their malice.
Others teach that the male wasn't being properly punished by death, so He pardoned her.
