Luke:12:1-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
During which time the myriads of the multitude having gathered together so as to trample each other ,
he began first to say to his disciples ,
Take heed to yourselves from the leaven of the Pharisees ,
which is hypocrisy .
*
But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed ,
and hidden that will not be known .
*
Therefore ,
as many things as ye have said in the darkness will be heard in the light ,
and what ye have spoken in the ear in the inner chambers will be proclaimed upon the housetops .
*
And I say to you my friends ,
Be not afraid of those who kill the body ,
and after these things not having anything more severe to do .
*
But I will show you whom ye should fear .
Fear him ,
who ,
after killing ,
has power to cast into hell .
Yes ,
I say to you ,
fear ye him .
*
Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins ?
And not one of them is forgotten in the sight of God .
*
But even the hairs of your head are all numbered .
Fear not ,
therefore ,
ye are superior to many sparrows .
*
And I say to you ,
every man who will confess in me before men ,
the Son of man will also confess in him before the agents of God ,
*
but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of the agents of God .
*
And every man who will speak a word against the Son of man ,
it will be forgiven him ,
but to him who blasphemed against the Holy Spirit it will not be forgiven .
*
And when they bring you to the synagogues ,
and the principle positions ,
and the offices of authority ,
be not anxious how or what ye should answer in defense ,
or what ye should say ,
*
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say .
