golden text ilet him that heareth say come rev 2217 the lesson as a whole iii ordtr rightly to understand the calling and mission of the twelve prior to our lords crucifixion we need to bear in mind that the lord jesus christ was presenting him self to israel as their promised king god was dealing with them as a nation giving them full oppor tunity to acknowledge the claims of his son the twelve were chosen as his messengers to the nation as such and their ministry like his own was primarily to the lost sheep of the house of israel vs 5 6 after the cross all this was changed and they were com missioned to go into all the world and to make disciples of all nations this worldwide commission has never been revoked and is in force today though it has never yet been fully carried out if we do not see this distinction we are likely to be come confused for very opposite in structions are found in the gospels as to the responsibility of the mess engers in each instance in matthew 10 we are told that the lord sent forth the twelve without silver or gold for their expenses or extra garments to wear they were the kinps representatives going to his own people and they had a right to expect to be cared for by the faith ful in israel who were waiting for the king but in view of their worldwide mission they were given very- different instruction luke 22 353s for they were going out into an unfriendly world to proclaim the gospel of peace it is true that the great majority in israel had no heart to respond to the message but nevertheless the circumstances were quite differnt god had forseen the rejection of his son and his sacri ficial death was the very foundation of the divine plan of blessing for the world but that did not lessen is raels responsibility as peter de clared later acts 223 thf historical setllnc the calling of the twelve apostles was the initial act of a new and wid er aniuistry jesus had been train iug them for some time and they were recognized as his disciples or pupils xow he commissioned them to go forth two by two as his per sonal representatives to announce the offer of the kingdom to israel verse by verse matthew 1024 the disciple is not above his master a disciple is a learner humility becomes one in that position as christs servants and disciples we are responible to obey his word verse 25 they have called the master of the house beelzebub according to jewish thought beelze bub a philistine word probably was the chief of the demons there were those who blasphemously applied this name to jesus verse 26 nothing covered that shall not be revealed this is a solemn consideration all hidden motives and actions will be brought into the light in the day when god will judge the secrets of men rom 216 verse 27 preach ye upon the housetops that which they had learned of jesus in secret in hours of wonderful fellowship with the prince of teachers they were to pro claim boldly in public places verse 2s not able to kill the soul the death of the body does not result in the death of the soul lives on after the ibody dies and in the resurrection body and soul will he reunited and in the case of the impenitent cast into hell verse 29 two sparrows sold for a farthing a farthing was an in finitesimal coin yet two sparrows dressed and spitted were sold in the markets for this amount they were used as food by the poorest of the people nevertheless god took note of every sparrows fall verse 30 the very hairs of your head are all numbered noth ing is too insignificant for god to note and his care extends to the minutest details of our lives verse 31 of more value than many sparrows god cares for all his creatures but man has a special place in his heart and is valued above all other animate beings verse 32 confess me before men christ claims absolute author ity over our lives we are to acknowledge him openly before others and he will confess our un worthy names in the day when we are to appear before god verse 33 him will i also deny if we refuse to own christ now as saviour and lord he will deny us in the day of judgment verse 34 not to send peace but a sword this seems like a strange statement in view of the angels message at bis birth luke 214 but he foresaw his rejection and knew that the conflict between good and evil must go on until his re turn his servants must ibe prepar ed to fight valiantly against iniquity verse 35 to set a man at variance against his father the claims of christ are paramount to all others his disciples must be prepared to encounter opposition even in their own homes and on the part of their nearest kindred verse 36 a mans foes shall be they of his own household this was not only true as a result of the mission of the twelve in that day but it has been sadly fulfilled throughout all the centuries since verse 37 not worthy of mo if jesus were less i than god how preposterous would be such claims as he makes here he demands the suprtme place in our hearts we are to put love for him before love to father or mother or sister or brother verse 3s followtth after me to take the cross is to acknowledge our identification with him as the rejecttd one a man carrying a cross was a man devoted to death and we are called to die daily icor 1531 in order that he may be glorified in us verse 30 hhe that loseth his life for my sake shall find it to live for self is to fail to recognizo the purpose of our creation but if we give up all that men of the world value for his names sake we gain eternolly the heart of ibe lesson obedience is the test of devotion if wo truly love our lord we will be glad to yield all we are and have to him for service he has entrusted us who are saved ourselves with the business directory medical dr s s ball physician
