OUR PATTERN

There are many descriptions of the Lord and what he did and what he said and where he went, and such. When we read about the visit of the apostle Peter to the household of Cornelius, we discover a very fine description of who and what Jesus was about. It also becomes our pattern.

The Acts of Apostles 10:38 lays it out like this: “You know how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.”

You know
How God anointed
Jesus of Nazareth
With the Holy Spirit
With power
How he went about doing good
And healing
All who were oppressed by the devil
For God was with him

Now it’s our turn.

“And proclaim as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’[c Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers,[d] cast out demons.” Jesus
