Perceived strength can be one’s own worst enemy. After all, it leads people to think that they are more powerful and capable than they really are.
Christ was no thief, but He allowed Himself to be crucified with and for thieves. Why did He allow this? Love compelled Him to bear the sins of many.
To steal is to wrongfully and selfishly take something that belongs to someone else and place it amongst one’s own possessions.

Sin is not to be considered a light matter. In other words, it is not to be mocked. Only a fool would demonstrate this kind of behaviour toward sin.
