Church history: The Commission Christ Gave To His Twelve Apostles; Luke 9:1-6; Matthew 10:1; Mark 3:14-19
We have heard of the choosing of these twelve disciples, and their names, Luke 6:13-16; Mark 3:16-19. Christ chose them to be with him, to learn of him, and to be instructed by him, and to be witnesses of what he said and did; after some time he sends them forth to preach the gospel, and gives them a power to confirm the doctrine which they preached, by several miraculous operations. Matthew takes no notice of their election, only of their mission. Both Mark and Luke take notice of both. Luke 9:3-6 give us an account of the instructions he gave them.
