“The twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions…As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’” (Matt. 10:5-7) The Bible teaches us that when we “proclaim as we go” and “preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season,” we will meet different people and reactions.
