The Altar Illusion
Jesus:So if when you are offering your gift at the altar you there remember that your brother has any [grievance] against you, leave your gift at the altar and go. First make peace with your brother, and then come back and present your gift. Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are on the way traveling with him, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. Truly I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last fraction of a penny.
The Second Attitudinal Principle: Attitude Toward Our Brother
First make peace with your brother, and then come back and present your gift.
Jesus reminds us that our attitude of heart is what facilitates our relationship with him. This also serves as a reminder to be sensitive to the conscience of those in our lives. We are our brothers keepers and part of this responsibility is to be concerned with how our attitudes effect them.
People are God's extension to us. Those who somehow make it past our insecurities, past our defenses, and into our lives serve as God's teacher. One relationship may teach us tolerance, while another teaches us patience, and still another teaches us love. God's lessons are not always pleasant but they are necessary for our specific purpose.
Ultimately, God will teach us to perfect our love:
Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time...[no one can teach] the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. [The aim is toward] removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
