Coming in contact with these masses of uninstruoted men and women,' who were ignorant of the fundamental na ture of God and his purposes for man kind. Jesus was vitally concerned for their spiritual ; welfare and often voiced the need for additional work ers to accomplish 4his mission. ... .With ; accurate foresight, Jesus sensed the future sufficiently to rea lize that his personal activity could not h indefinitely Drolonjred.

At tne same time, they were to perform their acts . of .Inva and mercy which had mark- , ed the activity of Jesus himself and were empowered to have control over unclean sprits, disease and all man ner of afflictions being cautioned to give as freely as they had received. In sending, out these. representatives, Jesus did not promise -them an easy task.
