                 derstanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God...
                 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowl-
                 edge. (Colossians, 2:2-3)


                 So Jesus called them [teachers of religious law] and spoke to
                 them in parables: "... If a country is divided against itself, that
                 country cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that
                 house cannot stand... In fact, no one can enter a strong man's
                 house and carry off his possessions ..." (Mark, 3:23-27)

                 Now Jesus' mother and brothers came to see him, but they were
                 not able to get near him because of the crowd. Someone told
                 him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting
                 to see you." He replied, "My mother and brothers are those

                 who hear God's word and put it into practice." (Luke, 8:19-21)

                 "Do not stop him," Jesus said, "for whoever is not against you
                 is for you." (Luke, 9:50)

                 ... And we ought to lay down our lives [for God's good plea-
                 sure] for our brothers. (1 John, 3:16)




                           Entrusting to Reliable Men


                 Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted
                 with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will al-
                 so be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustwor-
                 thy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true
                 riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone
                 else's property, who will give you property of your own?
                 (Luke, 16:10-12)
