You may ask for prayers―so did Pharaoh; see Exodus 8:8.
You may be "almost persuaded"―so was Agrippa; see Acts 26:28.
You may "find no fault" with Christ―so did Pilate; see John 19:4.
You may "make long prayers"―so did the Pharisees; see Mark 12:40.
You may appear to be a disciple―so did Judas; see Acts 1:16, 17.
