Daily New Testament - Quarter 1Sample

Just as Jesus said he would, he rises from the dead. Despite this overwhelming evidence of God’s power, the Jewish leaders continue to reject him. They are so committed to their opposition of Jesus they encourage the guards to lie. Jesus tells his disciples their job is to encourage both Jews and non-Jews to trust and follow him.

There is nothing more important we can do than help others trust Jesus. It’s easy to become distracted by making a living or doing other good things, but the reason Jesus has left us here on earth is to lead others to him.
