POWER given APOSTLES

 


Matthew 16:24

King James Version

24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, 

If any man will come after me, 

let him deny himself, 

and take up his cross, 

and follow me.


What were the 12 apostles tasked with?

What did JESUS teach them to do?

Scripture tells us more.

Matthew 4:19

King James Version

19 And he saith unto them, 

Follow me, 

and I will make you fishers of men.


Matthew 10:1

King James Version

10 And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, 

he gave them power against unclean spirits, 

to cast them out, 

and to heal all manner of sickness 

and all manner of disease.


Matthew 10:5-8

King James Version

5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, 

and commanded them, saying, 

Go not into the way of the Gentiles, 

and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

7 And as ye go, preach, saying, 

The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8 Heal the sick, 

cleanse the lepers, 

raise the dead, 

cast out devils: 

freely ye have received, 

freely give.


Matthew 19:28

King James Version

28 And Jesus said unto them, 

Verily I say unto you, 

That ye which have followed me, 

in the regeneration when the Son of man 

shall sit in the throne of his glory, 

ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, 

judging the twelve tribes of Israel.


Matthew 28:19-20

King James Version

19 Go ye therefore, 

and teach all nations, 

baptizing them in the name of the Father, 

and of the Son, 

and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things 

whatsoever I have commanded you: 

and, lo, 

I am with you always, 

even unto the end of the world. 

Amen.


Mark 3:13-15

King James Version

13 And he goeth up into a mountain, 

and calleth unto him whom he would: 

and they came unto him.

14 And he ordained twelve, 

that they should be with him, 

and that he might send them forth to preach,

15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, 

and to cast out devils:


Mark 16:14-20

King James Version

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven 

as they sat at meat, 

and upbraided them with their unbelief 

and hardness of heart, 

because they believed not them 

which had seen him after he was risen.

15 And he said unto them, 

Go ye into all the world, 

and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; 

but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; 

In my name shall they cast out devils; 

they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; 

and if they drink any deadly thing, 

it shall not hurt them; 

they shall lay hands on the sick, 

and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them,

he was received up into heaven, 

and sat on the right hand of God.

20 And they went forth, 

and preached every where, 

the Lord working with them, 

and confirming the word with signs following. 

Amen.


Luke 24:44-53

King James Version

44 And he said unto them, 

These are the words which I spake unto you, 

while I was yet with you, 

that all things must be fulfilled, 

which were written in the law of Moses, 

and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

45 Then opened he their understanding, 

that they might understand the scriptures,

46 And said unto them, 

Thus it is written, 

and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, 

and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins 

should be preached in his name among all nations, 

beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

49 And, behold, 

I send the promise of my Father upon you: 

but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, 

until ye be endued with power from on high.

50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, 

and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

51 And it came to pass, 

while he blessed them, 

he was parted from them, 

and carried up into heaven.

52 And they worshipped him, 

and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53 And were continually in the temple, 

praising and blessing God. 

Amen.


John 21:15-17

King James Version

15 So when they had dined, 

Jesus saith to Simon Peter, 

Simon, son of Jonas, 

lovest thou me more than these? 

He saith unto him, 

Yea, Lord; 

thou knowest that I love thee. 

He saith unto him, 

Feed my lambs.

16 He saith to him again the second time, 

Simon, son of Jonas, 

lovest thou me? 

He saith unto him, 

Yea, Lord; 

thou knowest that I love thee. 

He saith unto him, 

Feed my sheep.

17 He saith unto him the third time, 

Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? 

Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, 

Lovest thou me? 

And he said unto him, 

Lord, thou knowest all things; 

thou knowest that I love thee.

 Jesus saith unto him, 

Feed my sheep.
