26 Therefore do not fear them. Mark 4:22; Luke 8:17; 12:2, 3; (1 Cor. 4:5)For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.
Jesus Teaches the Fear of God
27 "Whatever I tell you in the dark, Luke 12:3; Acts 5:20speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops.28 Luke 12:4; (1 Pet. 3:14)And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather Is. 8:13; Matt. 5:22; Luke 12:5fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.29 Are not two Luke 12:6, 7sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.30 1 Sam. 14:45; 2 Sam. 14:11; 1 Kin. 1:52; Luke 21:18; Acts 27:34But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
