alright

i have to do a 10 minute talk on faith for a course i am doin with church, i was just wondering if any of you had any thoughts verses or insights?
leave them in the comments thanks

apart from that i am trying to work hard for my course, went to a sports ball with waterpolo on tuesday night which was great fun, and I have applied to do a 24/7 mission team in ibiza in august


i have been reading read moon rising about the 24/7 great book but at the back it uses Jesus sending out the 72 as a model for mission:
luke 10 1-9
After this the Lord appointed seventy-two[1] others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. 2He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. 3Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves. 4Do not take a purse or bag or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.
5"When you enter a house, first say, 'Peace to this house.' 6If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; if not, it will return to you. 7Stay in that house, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move around from house to house.
8"When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is set before you. 9Heal the sick who are there and tell them, 'The kingdom of God is near you.' 10But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say, 11'Even the dust of your town that sticks to our feet we wipe off against you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God is near.' 12I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.

but at the end of luke's gospel Jesus goes on to say: luke 22:35-37
5Then Jesus asked them, "When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?"
"Nothing," they answered.
36He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. 37It is written: 'And he was numbered with the transgressors'[2] ; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment."

my question is this; how much does this second statement affect the first ie is the model in luke 10 still relivant? is it short sighted to solely consider it? or was this final statement of Jesus more a footnote to the earlier time that its gonna be harder but keep at it?

thanks g
