(Phil. 1:10-11): "That when you know the best, you may be pure and without stumbling in the day of Christ, filled with the fruits of righteousness through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God."

Rule 19.

About the one who hinders, and about the one who encounters an obstacle to the fulfillment of God's commandment

Chapter 1. He who does the will of God should not be hindered, whether according to God's commandment or according to reason, he follows the commandment; and he who fulfills the commandment must not listen to those who hinder him, although they are neighbors, but must adhere to the accepted intention.

(Matthew 2:13-15): "Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John to be baptized by him. And John restrained Him, and said, I must be baptized by Thee, and dost Thou come to me? But Jesus answered and said to him, 'Leave it now, for thus it behooves us to fulfill all righteousness,' and so on.

(Matthew 2:16, 21-23): "From that time Jesus began to reveal to His disciples that He must go up to Jerusalem and suffer much from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day rise again. And having called Him back, Peter began to rebuke Him: "Be merciful to Yourself, O Lord! let it not be so with Thee! And he turned and said to Peter, "Get thee behind me, Satan! you are a stumbling block to Me! for you do not think of the things of God, but of the things of man."

(Mark 10:13-14): "They brought children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples did not admit those who brought them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant, and said to them, "Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God."

(Acts 21:10-14): "We dwelt with them many days, and a certain prophet came from Judea, whose name was Agabus, and came in to us, and took Paul's girdle, and bound his hands and feet, and said, 'Thus saith the Holy Spirit: The man whose girdle this girdle is, so shall the Jews bind in Jerusalem, and deliver into the hands of the Gentiles.' And when we heard this, we and those there asked him not to go up to Jerusalem. But Paul answered and said, What are you doing? Why do you weep and break my heart? I not only want to be a prisoner, but I am ready to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. But when we could not persuade him, we calmed down, saying, 'The will of the Lord be done!'"
