esson 4395)(02-13-24) Luke 12:58-59
“When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison. I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.”
In today’s quote, concerning the coming kingdom of God, Jesus advised resolving disputes quickly, likening those issues to a debtor being sued in court. Jesus suggested settling matters before reaching the judge, to avoid being sentenced and imprisoned, warning that the debtor would not be released until the last penny was paid. This metaphor encouraged settling issues quickly and in a friendly manner, emphasizing the importance of reconciliation and the consequences of unresolved conflicts.~
