161Peter 315-16
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord.
Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone
who asks you to give the reason for the hope that
you have. But do this with gentleness and
respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that
those who speak maliciously against your good
behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their
slander. 1 Peter 315-16

19Mark 216-17
When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees
saw him eating with the sinners and tax
collectors, they asked his disciples, Why does
he eat with tax collectors and sinners? On
hearing this, Jesus said to them, It is not the
healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have
not come to call the righteous, but
sinners. Mark 216-17
