Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!
Or what man is there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone?
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up;
But I fear that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be corrupted from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.
