‏ Luke 12:2-9

2 aNothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. 3Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in bprivate rooms shall be proclaimed on cthe housetops.

Have No Fear

4“I tell you, my friends, ddo not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do. 5But I will warn you whom to fear: fear him ewho, after he has killed, has authority to cast into hell. ▼
▼Greek Gehenna
 Yes, I tell you, fear him! 6Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? ▼
▼Greek  two assaria; an assarion was a Roman copper coin worth about 1/16 of a denarius (which was a day’s wage for a laborer)
 And hnot one of them is forgotten before God. 7Why, ieven the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; jyou are of more value than many sparrows.

Acknowledge Christ Before Men

8“And I tell you, keveryone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge lbefore the angels of God, 9but mthe one who denies me before men nwill be denied obefore the angels of God.
