“And he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts— but to wear sandals and not put on two tunics. And he said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart from there. And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet as a testimony against them.” So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent. And they cast out many demons and anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them.”

All,This stands out because Mark says, “ So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent.” It’s interesting how the proclamations always start with repentance. Repentance recognizes sin and also recognizes our inability to defeat sin on our own and our absolute dependence on Jesus. Without repentance, we can be a proud Pharisees, but with repentance we can join all the believers who know Jesus. Please pray that we and our friends repent for our sins today and abide in Jesus. Please pray for the men who need to be in a CLC group.
