After Jesus had taught his disciples both privately and publicly he decided to send them out to practicalise what they had learnt. The three synoptic gospels recorded the mission of the twelve disciples.
Matthew stated that the mission of the twelve was limited to the Jewish territories but Luke and Mark did not record it. Matthew alone stated the names of the disciples that were sent out but not recorded by the two other gospels. Mark stated that the disciples were sent out in pairs i.e. two by two but Luke and Matthew did not state it. Matthew stated that Jesus called the twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirit to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every infirmity. Jesus announced rules guiding their mission-a code of conduct. The first was that they should not go with money or tunics or bags. They should stay in places where they were received with open hands.

King Herod, seeking to gain favor with the Jewish leaders, began persecuting the early Christians. He arrested Peter, one of the leading apostles, during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Herod’s intention was to publicly execute Peter after the Passover celebrations, a plan intended to solidify his political position.
Peter was imprisoned and placed under heavy guard with four squads of soldiers, each squad consisting of four men. The situation seemed dire, as Peter was shackled and closely guarded, awaiting his trial. However, the early Christian community fervently prayed for Peter’s deliverance.
On the night before his planned execution, an angel of the Lord visited Peter in the prison. The angel’s light filled the cell, and Peter’s chains fell off. The angel instructed Peter to dress and follow him. Initially, Peter thought he was dreaming, but soon realized the angel’s guidance was real. The two passed through the iron gate leading to the city, which opened by itself, and they walked through the streets until they reached the house of Mary, the mother of John. There, the believers were gathered, praying for Peter’s release.
When Peter knocked at the door, the servant girl Rhoda recognized his voice but was so overjoyed that she forgot to open the door. Eventually, the believers let Peter in, astonished by his unexpected appearance. Peter described how the Lord had delivered him and then left for another place, knowing that his escape would likely provoke further persecution.

In James’ epistle, James offers a profound discussion on the use of the tongue, emphasizing its immense power and the critical importance of controlling it. In James 3:1-12, he begins by cautioning that not many should become teachers, as they will be judged more strictly, setting the stage for his discourse on speech and its responsibilities.
James compares the tongue to a bit in a horse’s mouth, which controls the whole animal, and to a rudder on a ship, which steers the entire vessel. These comparisons highlight how something small can have a significant impact, emphasizing the tongue’s ability to direct the course of a person’s life.
James warns of the tongue’s potential for immense destruction, likening it to a small spark that can set a great forest on fire. This illustrates how careless words can cause significant harm and conflict. He describes the tongue as a world of evil among the body parts, corrupting the whole person and setting the course of one’s life on fire, even being itself set on fire by hell. This strong language underscores the severe consequences of uncontrolled speech.
James also points out the difficulty of taming the tongue, noting that while humans have tamed all kinds of animals, no one can tame the tongue. It is described as a restless evil, full of deadly poison, indicating its capacity to cause ongoing harm. He highlights the inconsistency and hypocrisy of using the tongue for both blessing God and cursing people made in God’s image. This duality demonstrates the need for integrity and consistency in speech.
James’s teaching emphasizes the tongue’s power, the potential for good and harm, the difficulty of controlling it, and the need for Christians to exercise careful control over their speech to reflect their faith and values accurately.
