3238.— Allowing a Thief

By Editor

Are we, in the light of Luke 6:30, to allow a thief a free opportunity to steal?
No. That is not the thought of the text. The thought of the text seems to be that when one is persecuted by the law or by those in authority and his goods taken away, let them have them. It does not mean that one should not use prudence in his work; but there come times when violent men will persecute, will smite, will rob, because of one's religion, and in that case results should be left with God.
