Pastor Glenn Newton 10-16-05 AC 4:13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus. 14 But since they could see the man who had ...read more

    This is a study of James based on 12 Ordinary Men. It has a lot of added notes and scripture.

    Note: This is a study from the book 12 Ordinary Men by John McArthur an excellent book. There is also a fill in the blank outline from Adult Bible Fellowships of First Baptist Church Orion that I have posted in the series. This is not original but worth posting for study.

    The Twelve Apostles

    The analysis of Jesus choosing the twelve apostles as set forth in Luke 6:12-16 will show us that Jesus uses ordinary people to accomplish his purposes.

    Scripture Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. He was about thirty years of age when he began his public ministry (Luke 3:23) in 28 AD. His ministry of seeking and saving the lost was primarily a ministry of teaching and healing. As Jesus carried out his itinerant ministry in Israel his ...read more

    This is part three of a seven-part series on Jesus’ disciples and the principles of discipleship. This message focuses on Andrew and Peter.

    It is amazing isn’t it? Just to be able to see these common men with an uncommon calling. That is what we have been looking at in this series, "The Twelve". We have been looking at twelve men that Jesus selected to be a part of his team, to be a part of his staff, to be a part of those that were ...read more

    God Uses The Ordinary To Do The Extraordinary

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 24, 2025
     | 313 views

    It is amazing how some things never change. For example, when Christ was here on earth they had two kinds of men, as we have today. • They had the ordinary man • They had the extraordinary man

    It never ceases to amaze me the people that God chooses to do His work. Such as… (1) David. In 1 Samuel 16:1-12 we read how… • Saul had been rejected as king and God sent Samuel to anoint a new king. Vs. 1-3 • Samuel went. Vs. 4-5 • Jesse and his sons were summoned to the sacrifice vs ...read more

    The Search For The Twelve

     | 1,980 views

    This is a message that will help us understand that the Apostles were men just like us. They had character that was uniquely given to them by God for His mission and purpose.

    Andy Almendarez The Search for the Twelve November 2, 2000 The impetus for this message arose out of Luke’s allusions to the twelve being groomed to take over the leadership of Israel. Luke also makes reference to the twelve judging the twelve tribes of Israel (Luke 19:11-27; 22:30). This is ...read more

    The calling of the twelve disciples is significant. These twelve men were special in that they were chosen to be the twelve disciples that the Lord Jesus Himself was going to teach and train.

    These twelve men had opportunities that no other men who ever lived on this earth have had. Each disciple that Jesus called into the ministry had special skills. Many of them were fishermen, and He took their skill as fishermen and made them “fishers of men.” Let’s look at two things: I. THE ...read more

    In Mark's version of the sending of the 12, he tells us the exciting story of how Jesus chose 12 men and set them apart to go tell others the Good News of faith in Christ. We need to follow their example!
