bwe - Luke:12:1-12

bwe@Luke:12:1 @ Many thousands of people had gathered. They stepped on each other. Jesus began to talk to the disciples. He said, Take care. Do not let the yeast of the Pharisees spoil you. They are not true to themselves.

bwe@Luke:12:2 @ Everything that is covered up will be seen. Everything that is hidden will be known.

bwe@Luke:12:3 @ What you have said in the dark will be heard in the light. What you have said in secret with the door shut will be told from the tops of the houses.

bwe@Luke:12:4 @ You are my friends. I tell you, do not fear people who can kill your bodies. After that they cannot do anything more to you.

bwe@Luke:12:5 @ I will tell you whom you must fear. Fear the one who, after he has killed, has the power to throw into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him!

bwe@Luke:12:6 @ Are not five sparrows sold for a tiny sum of money? Yet God does not forget about one of them.

bwe@Luke:12:7 @ Even the number of hairs on your head is known. So do not fear. You are worth more than many sparrows.

bwe@Luke:12:8 @ And I tell you. If anyone tells people that he knows me, the Son of Man will also tell the angels of God that he knows him.

bwe@Luke:12:9 @ But if anyone tells people he does not know me, the Son of Man will also tell the angels of God that he does not know that person.

bwe@Luke:12:10 @ Everyone who says anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who says wrong things against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

bwe@Luke:12:11 @ When men take you to the meeting houses and to the rulers and to the courts, do not be troubled about what you will answer or say.

bwe@Luke:12:12 @ The Holy Spirit will teach you at the right time what you must say.
