Matthew 10:28-31 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill

the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a

copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will. 30 But the very hairs of

your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value

than many sparrows.
