. “The Lord Appointed Other Seventy Also”
- Review Luke 10:1–24. Based on these verses, write a summary of
the Lord’s counsel and instructions He gave the seventy.
The Lord told the choosen Seventy that the
potential for the followers was great and there were few members and
missionaries to spread the gospel. He
told them to go forth and spread the gospel to every city and place, but that
they may experience danger, they would not be given money, nor shoes. They were also told not to delay getting
started on His work. He told them to let the Spirit guide them on which house
to visit, and teach of the true gospel of Christ. They were instructed not to
be prideful because they were given the opportunity to know the gospel.
- Articles of Faith 1:6 states, “We believe in the same
organization that existed in the Primitive Church.” Using the principles
taught from Luke 10:1–2, 8–9, 17–20, write a paragraph that supports this
Article of Faith.
