And called the twelve, and began to send them two and two, and gave them authority over unclean spirits. And he commanded them, that they should take nothing for the journey, except a staff only; neither scrip, nor bread, nor even brass money in their purse: wearing sandals, and not to be clothed with two coats. read more.
And he said unto them, Wheresoever ye enter into a family, there abide until ye depart thence. And as many as shall not receive you, neither hearken to you, when ye go from thence, shake off the dust from beneath your feet, for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.






These twelve did Jesus send forth, commanding them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter not: but go rather to the sheep that are lost of the house of Israel. And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is approaching. read more.
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, nor a scrip for the journey, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor stick: for the workman is worthy of his food. And into whatsoever city or village ye enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye depart. And when ye come into a family, salute it: and if the family shall be deserving, your peace shall come upon it: and if it be not deserving, your peace shall return to you. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor attend to your discourses, go out of that house, or city, and shake off the dust of your feet. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.







NOW concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I should write to you: for yourselves know precisely that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction rusheth upon them, as travail on a woman with child, and they shall in no wise escape. read more.
But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day should overtake you as a thief.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief by night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a rushing noise, and the first principles of matter in flames dissolve, and the earth and all the works upon it be burnt up. Seeing then that all these things must be dissolved, what manner of persons ought we to be in a course of holy conduct and acts of piety, expecting and hastening towards the coming of God's day, at which the heavens on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements in flames be melted as wax?




but in those days, after that distressing season, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not emit her light; and the stars of the heaven will be falling, and the powers that are in heaven will be shaken.

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men terrified to death with fear, and expectation of the calamities coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

but ye are come unto mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, and to the general assembly and church of the first-born registered in the heavens, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of just men perfected, and to Jesus the mediator of the new testament, and to the blood of sprinkling, which speaketh better things than that of Abel. read more.
Beware that ye reject not him that speaketh: for if they escaped not, who rejected him, that upon earth spake by divine influence, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him who speaks from heaven: whose voice then shook the earth, but now he hath promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also the heaven." Now this word yet once more manifests the removal of the things shaken, as of things formed, that the things not shaken may endure.
