8 And you shall go not in the way of the Assyrians, nor Greek; you shall not go into Samaria; go only to your brethren of the scattered tribes.
9 And as you go proclaim, The kingdom of the Christ has come.
10 You have abundantly received, and freely you shall give.
11 But you must go in faith; provide yourselves no crutch to lean upon.
12 Give all your gold and silver to the poor; take not two coats, nor extra shoes; just take your wands.
13 You are God’s husbandmen and he will never suffer you to want.
14 In every place you go search out the men of faith; with them abide until you go from hence.
15 You go for me; you act for me. They who receive and welcome you, receive and welcome me;
16 And they who shut their doors against your face, refuse to welcome me.
17 If you are not received in kindness in a town, bear not away an evil thought; do not resist.
18 An evil thought of any kind will do you harm; will dissipate your power.
19 When you are not received with favor, go your way, for there are multitudes of men who want the light.
20 Behold, I send you forth as sheep among a pack of wolves; and you must be as wise as serpents and as harmless as the doves.
21 In all your language be discreet, for Pharisees and scribes will seek a cause for your arrest in what you say.
22 And they will surely find a way by charges false to bring you into court.
23 And judges will declare that you are guilty of some crime, and sentence you to scourgings and to prison cells.
24 But when you come to stand before the judge, be not afraid; be not disturbed about the way to act, the words to speak.
25 The Holy Breath will guide you in that hour, and give the words that you shall speak.
26 Of this be full assured; It is not you who speaks; it is the Holy Breath who gives the words and moves the lips.
27 The gospel that you preach will not bring peace, but it will stir the multitudes to wrath.
28 The carnal man abhors the truth, and he would give his life to crush the tender plant before the harvest time.
29 And this will bring confusion in the homes that were the homes of stagnant peace.
30 And brother will give brother up to death; the father will stand by and see men execute his child; and in the courts the child will testify against the sire, and gladly see its mother put to death.
