2 Samuel 10 gives an interesting example of what may happen when one thinks he can read another’s mind; and moreover, decides to try to embarrass the target(s) of his disdain.
Yes, a breathtaking and tragic example of the folly of making unfounded assumptions about what is in another person’s heart. We are not required to be willfully ignorant of real danger, but as Paul says, love thinks no evil. Wise as serpents, harmless as doves.
