But Jesus said, "Do not tell him not to do so, for there is no one who will use my name to do a mighty act, and be able soon after to abuse me. For the man who is not against us is for us. For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink, on the ground that you belong to Christ, I tell you, will certainly not fail to be repaid. And whoever causes one of these humble believers to fall might better have a great millstone hung around his neck and be thrown into the sea. If your hand makes you fall, cut it off.
