Warning about Trouble
(Mark 13.9-13; Luke 21.12-17)
16 (A) I am sending you like lambs into a pack of wolves. So be as wise as snakes and as innocent as doves. 17 (B) Watch out for people who will take you to court and have you beaten in their synagogues. 18 Because of me, you will be dragged before rulers and kings to tell them and the Gentiles about your faith. 19 But when someone arrests you, don't worry about what you will say or how you will say it. At that time you will be given the words to say. 20 But you will not really be the one speaking. The Spirit from your Father will tell you what to say.
