Jesus sends his disciples into the world for what purpose?
Jesus sends the disciples into the world to spread the Word of God. To save the people from committing more sins by telling them to repent and trust in the Lord Jesus as the only Way, the Truth and the Life. They are guided by God to speak the truth and tell the world that God really loves us and Jesus came as a man to die for our sins. It is because of His blood that He shed that save us from death penalty. By: Kathleen Terado - February 25, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Prays for His Disciples

Jesus sends his disciples into the world for what purpose?
Jesus answers that one for us Himself when He said, `As You sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.` They were sent into the world to spread the Word of God. Us, too! By: Patty - February 21, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Prays for His Disciples
"I revealed your
name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were
yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word. Now they have known that all
things whatever you have given me are from you, for the words which you have
given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure
that I came forth from you, and they have believed that you sent me.
I pray for them. I don't
pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are
yours. All things that
are mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them.
I am no more in the
world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father,
keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one,
even as we are. While I
was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. Those whom you have
given me I have kept. None of them is lost, except the son of destruction,
that the Scripture might be fulfilled. But now I come to you, and I say
these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in
themselves. I have given
them your word. The world hated them, because they are not of the world,
even as I am not of the world. I pray not that you would take
them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.
They are not of the
world even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in your truth.
Your word is truth. As
you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.
For their sakes I
sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.
