Following on from the first disciples of Jesus. Jesus calls Philip and Nathanael. .The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee.He found Philip and said to him,'Come with me!' (Philip was from Bethsaida, the town where Andrew and Peter lived). Philip found Nathanael and told him, We have found the one whom Moses wrote about in the book of the Law and whom the prophets also wrote about. He is Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth. John 1 v 43-45 Good News Bible. Gwyn

St John's Gospel suggests that Andrew was the first to hear the urgent call of Jesus. He then went and fetched his brother Simon and said, 'We have found the Messiah.' So Andrew was both the first apostle to be called by Jesus, and the first of all Christian missionaries.

and when He had given thanks, He broke it (the bread) and said, 'Take, eat;, this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.' In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, 'This is the cup of the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.' 1 Corinthians Chap 11 v 24-25. New King James Bible.

Young Children. I love these verses, using my grandfathers bible this morning,I see he has marked them out as well and put in the margine the date 14/3/1948.I wonder why he dated it? Then were there brought unto Him,little children,that He should put His hands on them,and pray:and the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said,Suffer little children, and forbid them not,to come unto me,for of such is the kingdom or heaven. And He laid His hands on them, and departed hence. Matthew19 v 13-15 King James Bible.

O give thanks to the God of heaven, for His mercy and lovingkindness endure for ever. Psalm136 v 26 Amplified

He who comes from Heaven. He who comes from above is greater than all.He who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks about earthly matters, but he who comes from heaven is above all. He tells what he has seen and heard,yet no one accepts his message But whoever accepts his message,confirms by this that God is truthful. The one whom God has sent speaks God`s word,because God gives him the fullness of his Spirit. The Father loves His Son and has put everything in His power. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not have life,but will remain under God`s punishment. John3 v 31 - 36 Good News Bible. Gwyn
