Luke 12:8-12 - Acknowledgement Of Christ And Persecution Of Disciples

⁸ I tell you, everyone who will acknowledge me before men, the Son of Man will acknowledge before the angels of God, ⁹ but anyone who disowns me before men will be disowned before the angels of God. ¹⁰ And anyone who speaks against the Son of Man will be forgiven for it, but no one who reviles the holy Spirit will be forgiven. ¹¹ When they bring you before the synagogues or the magistrates or the authorities, you must have no anxiety about how to defend yourselves or what to say, ¹² for at the very moment the holy Spirit will teach you what you ought to say."
