God's Interruption (6)
Later, the Lord feared that they would fall, and they might offend them. So he called on Peter to go fishing and open the mouth of the fish he caught first, and he would receive a dollar as a tax for him and Peter. The Lord Jesus wanted to show that the tax was not because he was an outsider, but because he was afraid that they would fall. Although He is the Son of God, He taxed Diane for the sake of not knocking people down, not letting people not be reconciled. Here we learn a lesson: many things you have the right to do, but you do it; many things can protect your own rights, but you do not. Why? Because they fear they will fall because they fear breaking them. This is not afraid of others. It is not a good principle to be afraid of others; if we do or do nothing because we are afraid, then our path is too wide. We are not here to be afraid of people but to avoid causing people to fall. This is for the other party, not for themselves. We must learn to lay down our rights for the benefit of others. (From the "Twelve Baskets" third series of the first)
