27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the light. What you hear in a whisper,C proclaim on the housetops.o 28 Don’t fear those who kill the body but are not able to kill the soul;p rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.q 29 Aren’t two sparrows sold for a penny?D Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’sr consent.E 30 But even the hairs of your head have all been counted.s 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.t

ACKNOWLEDGING CHRIST

32 “Therefore, everyone who will acknowledge me before others, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven.u 33 But whoever denies me before others,v I will also deny him before my Father in heaven.
