Rules For Wrongs

I have some rules today for anyone who knows they have genuinely done wrong. In fact I am merely passing on routine procedure -- nothing new. The first is: keep silent, come what may. And the second is like it: persuade everyone else to keep silent. The police know this principle well. The first thing they say when they arrest you is: "You have the right to remain silent." And this, I think, is one reason why Jesus said: do the very opposite -- and do it now. While you are at the altar. While you are in the way. Go, and talk. And pray that God will be with you.
