Daniel 3:16-18
3:16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to King Nebuchadnezzar,
“We do not need to give you a reply
concerning this.
3:17 If
our God whom we are serving exists,
he is able to rescue us from the furnace of blazing fire, and he will rescue us, O king, from your power as well.
3:18 But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we don’t serve your gods, and we will not pay homage to the golden statue that you have erected.”
Matthew 10:28
10:28 Do
not be afraid of those who kill the body
but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the one who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Luke 12:4-7
12:4 “I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more they can do.
12:5 But I will warn you whom you should fear: Fear the one who, after the killing, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him!
12:6 Aren’t five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.
12:7 In fact, even the hairs on your head are all numbered. Do not be afraid; you are more valuable than many sparrows.
