Choice 1 1. In Luke 10:1-24 the Savior taught the seventy about their responsibilities as His disciples. They were to go out and preach the gospel and bring souls to Christ. They were also to give blessings and heal the sick. The Savior was showing them to do the work that He does himself. This is part of the order of the church, to train up new leaders that can progress in their callings and train others after them. 2. The pattern of the organization of the church follows the same pattern as in the Savior’s day. The seventy were sent out two by two to “harvest” saints. In ancient times the seventy were taught to eat food that was provided them and to give blessings. Today missionaries are blessed with protection and power when they are doing the work of the Lord. It is neat to think that we are doing the work that they Savior was teaching others to do. 3. The seventies were are in our day to further the work of the Lord and lead over His church all over the world. They are presiding authorities but not ordained apostles. They were also in the Savior’s day. The Lord follows a pattern with His work.
