The Disciples First

Speaker: Phil Briggs

When He first came into the world, Jesus came to the notice of few people, and even then to the socially small and unknown. Nevertheless, His arrival was announced to royalty and the aristocracy in Jerusalem not long after His birth. Though arriving in enemy territory, He wasn't arriving unannounced. Similarly, when He began His public ministry thirty years later, He began in some obscurity, always seeking to avoid any sort of sensational public display, as difficult as that was due to the nature of His Messianic ministry.
