The blind recover their sight and the lame walk, the lepers are made clean and the deaf hear, the dead, too, are raised to life, and the good news is told to the poor.

Someone told him this, and Jesus replied:

Then he told them many truths in parables. "The sower," he began, "went out to sow; and,

Another parable which Jesus told them was this-- "The Kingdom of Heaven is compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

Another parable which he told them was this-- "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard-seed, which a man took and sowed in his field.

Then John's disciples came, and took the body away, and buried it; and went and told Jesus.

Then they understood that he had told them to be on their guard, not against the leaven of bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

The crowd told them to be quiet; but the men only called out the louder: "Take pity on us, Master, Son of David!"

Remember, I have told you beforehand.

I tell you, wherever, in the whole world, this Good News is proclaimed, what this woman has done will be told in memory of her."

And then go quickly and say to him disciples 'He has risen from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him.' Remember, I have told you."

And told them to say that his disciples came in the night, and stole him while they were asleep;

The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus told them to meet him;

Now Simon's mother-in-law was lying ill with fever, and they at once told Jesus about her.

So Jesus told his disciples to keep a small boat close by, for fear the crowd should crush him.

Then the woman, in fear and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and threw herself down before him, and told him the whole truth.

But Jesus repeatedly cautioned them not to let any one know of it, and told them to give her something to eat.

When the Apostles came back to Jesus, they told him all that they had done and all that they had taught.

"How many loaves have you?" he asked; "Go, and see." When they had found out, they told him: "Five, and two fishes."

Jesus told the crowd to sit down upon the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve out; and they served them out to the crowd.

They had also a few small fish; and, after he had said the blessing, he told the disciples to serve out these as well.

And the two disciples answered as Jesus had told them; and they allowed them to go.

But see that you are on your guard! I have told you all this beforehand.

And I tell you, wherever, in the whole world, the Good News is proclaimed, what this woman has done will be told in memory of her."

So the disciples set out and went into the city, and found everything just as Jesus had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

But go, and say to his disciples and to Peter 'He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you.'"

She went and told the news to those who had been with him and who were now in sorrow and tears;

They also went and told the rest, but they did not believe even them.

Now, when the angels had left them and gone back to Heaven, the shepherds said to one another: "Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see this thing that has happened, of which the Lord has told us."

And, when they saw it, they told of all that had been said to them about this child.

And the shepherds went back, giving glory and praise to God for all that they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.

And so with many different exhortations John told his Good News to the people.

So his answer to the question was: "Go and report to John what you have witnessed and heard--the blind recover their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, the Good News is told to the poor.

Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered;

Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.

He told them that the Son of Man must undergo much suffering, and be rejected by the Councillors, and Chief Priests, and Teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.

And, as the voice ceased, Jesus was found alone. The Apostles kept silence, and told no one about any of the things that they had seen.

Then Jesus told them this parable-- "There was once a rich man whose land was very fertile;

And Jesus told them this parable-- "A man, who had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, came to look for fruit on it, but could not find any.

Observing that the guests were choosing the best places for themselves, Jesus told them this parable--

On his return the servant told his master all these answers. Then in anger the owner of the house said to his servant 'Go out at once into the streets and alleys of the town, and bring in here the poor, and the crippled, and the blind, and the lame.'

So Jesus told them this parable--

'Your brother has come back,' the servant told him, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.'

The Law and the Prophets sufficed until the time of John. Since then the Good News of the Kingdom of God has been told, and everybody has been forcing his way into it.

Does he feel grateful to his servant for doing what he is told?

And so with you--when you have done all that you have been told, still say 'We are but useless servants; we have done no more than we ought to have done.'"

Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and never despair.

Another time, speaking to people who were satisfied that they were religious, and who regarded every one else with scorn, Jesus told this parable--

And, when people told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing,

He called ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds each, and told them to trade with them during his absence.

So the two who were sent went and found it as Jesus had told them.

As soon as they shoot, you know, as you look at them, without being told, that summer is near.

So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

And, on returning from the tomb, they told all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.

And, not finding the body of Jesus there, came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels who told them that he was alive.

Who told them that the Master had really risen, and had appeared to Simon.

"This is what I told you," he said, "when I was still with you--that everything that had been written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms, must be fulfilled."

"Do you believe in me," asked Jesus, "because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You shall see greater things than those!

Now, when the Master heard that the Pharisees had been told that he was making and baptizing more disciples than John

"Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?"

Many from that town came to believe in Jesus--Samaritans though they were--on account of the woman's statement--'He has told me everything that I have done.'

And, while he was on his way down, his servants met him, and told him that his child was living.

The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had cured him.

And he added: "This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless enabled by the Father."

And so I told you that you would die in your sins, for, unless you believe that I am what I am, you will die in your sins."

But, as it is, you are seeking to put me to death--a man who has told you the Truth as he heard it from God. Abraham did not act in that way.

"I told you just now," he answered, "and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Surely you also do not want to become his disciples?"

This was the allegory that Jesus told them, but they did not understand of what he was speaking.

"I have told you so," replied Jesus, "and you do not believe me. The work that I am doing in my Father's name bears testimony to me.

Some of them, however, went to the Pharisees, and told them what he had done.

Philip went and told Andrew, and then together they went and told Jesus.

In my Father's Home there are many dwellings. If it had not been so, I should have told you, for I am going to prepare a place for you.

I have told you all this while still with you,

And this I have told you now before it happens, that, when it does happen, you may still believe in me.

I have told you all this so that my own joy may be yours, and that your joy may be complete.

But I have spoken to you of these things that, when the time for them comes, you may remember that I told you about them myself.

"I have already told you that I am he," replied Jesus, "so, if it is for me that you are looking, let these men go."

Mary of Magdala went and told the disciples that she had seen the Master, and that he had said this to her.

Therefore my heart was cheered, and my tongue told its delight; Yes, even my body, too, will rest in hope;

Yes, and all the Prophets from Samuel onwards, and all their successors who had a message to deliver, told of these days.

After they had been set at liberty, the Apostles went to their friends and told them what the Chief Priests and the Councillors had said to them.

Presently, however, some one came and told them, that the men whom they had put in prison were actually standing in the Temple Courts, teaching the people.

The people, one and all, listened attentively to what Philip told them, when they heard of, and saw, the miracles which he was working.

However, when they came to believe Philip, as he told them the Good News about the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

Then Philip began, and, taking this passage as his text, told him the Good News about Jesus.

But Philip was found at Ashdod, and, as he went on his way, he told the Good News in all the towns through which he passed, till he came to Caesarea.

"Yet stand up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do."

Barnabas, however, taking him by the hand, brought him to the Apostles, and told them the whole story of how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord, and how the Lord had talked to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken out fearlessly in the Name of Jesus.

God has sent his Message to the Israelites and told them, through Jesus Christ, the Good News of peace--and Jesus is Lord of all!

The Spirit told me to go with them without hesitation. These six Brothers also went with me. And, when we came into the man's house,

He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and how the angel had said to him--'Send to Jaffa and fetch the Simon, who is also known as Peter;

She recognized Peter's voice, but in her joy left the gate unopened, and ran in, and told them that Peter was standing outside.

Peter signed to them with his hand to be silent, and then told them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison, adding: "Tell James and the Brethren all this." Then he left the house, and went away to another place.

He was at the court of the Governor, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who sent for Barnabas and Saul and asked to be told God's Message.

'Look, you despisers, and wonder, and perish; for I am doing a deed in your days--a deed which, though told you in full, you will never believe'."

Then Paul and Barnabas spoke out fearlessly, and said: "It was necessary that the Message of God should be told to you first; but, since you reject it and reckon yourselves not worthy of the Immortal Life--we turn to the Gentiles!

Paul and Barnabas, however, remained in Antioch, where they taught and, with the help of many others, told the Good News of the Lord's Message.

Some time after this, Paul said to Barnabas: "Let us go back and visit the Brethren in every town in which we have told the Lord's Message, and see how they are prospering."

The Governor of the Jail told Paul of his instructions. "The Magistrates have sent an order for your discharge," he said, "so you had better leave the place at once and go quietly away."

"John's baptism was a baptism upon repentance," rejoined Paul, "and John told the people (speaking of the 'One Coming; after him) that they should believe in him--that is in Jesus."
