The Mission of the Twelve

Mark 6:7-13

Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

If anyone will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”

So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.
