A parable — Loaded question

A man asked his neighbor: 'When did you stop cheating your workers?' His neighbor opened his mouth to answer, then closed it. To answer 'yesterday' was to confess. To answer 'never' was to confess differently. The man left thinking he had won. But the neighbor had cheated no one. Ask yourself: Did you answer the question, or refuse the trap inside it? RED — the most honest answer is sometimes refusing the frame. (A Narrow Highway original teaching parable — not a parable of Jesus; a made story that carries a true edge.)
