Luke 10:2

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:

For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.

For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.

So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.

Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it no...

But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD’s people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!

For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.
