A King of
Prussia visited a prison and interviewed prisoners one at a time. He asked each of them what crime they had committed. They all declared their innocence with the
exception of one man who owned the evil he had done and admitted that he was getting
what he deserved. The king ordered his
immediate release saying, “This man obviously has no business here among all
the innocent people.”
While honesty
may not always grant clemency, it is what God demands of us.
