Those He Called, Those Who Came

Scripture:

Mark 3:13-19

Jesus Appoints the Twelve

^13 Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him. ^14 He appointed twelve^[a] that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach ^15 and to have authority to drive out demons. ^16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter), ^17 James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”), ^18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot ^19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
