The Bait

In this tract, a poignant tale of a mother fish warning her young fish about the dangers of bait is told, the reader is drawn to reflect on their own choices and allegiances. The mother fish represents God, while the hunter symbolizes the devil, who lures with temptations. The message is clear: falling for the world’s enticements can lead to destruction, but embracing life in Christ promises abundant security. Just as the baby fish ignored its mother’s caution and faced a tragic fate, the reader is urged to consider the consequences of their actions and find refuge in the abundant life offered by Jesus.
