Luke 12:8-12

“And I say to you, anyone who acknowledges   me before others, the Son of Man   will also acknowledge him before the angels of God,   but whoever denies me before others will be denied before the angels of God.   Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven,   but the one who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit   will not be forgiven. Whenever   they bring you before synagogues and rulers and authorities,   don’t worry   about how you should defend   yourselves or what you should say. For the Holy Spirit will teach you at that very hour what must be said.”
