Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Mark 6
² And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonished, saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands!
³ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" And they were offended at Him.
⁴ But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house."
⁵ Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them.
⁶ And He marveled because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.
⁷ And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.
⁸ He commanded them to take nothing for the journey except a staff--no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts--
⁹ but to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.
¹⁰ Also He said to them, "In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place.
¹¹ And whoever Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"
¹² So they went out and preached that people should repent.
