If a son shall askbread of any of you that is a father , will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will hefor a fish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If ye then, beingevil, know how to givegood gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Luke 11:11-13
