Many Women Minister to Jesus

1 Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and1 bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him,

What Does Luke 8:1 Mean?

Jesus Christ came preaching the Kingdom of God and went through every city and village with the twelve bringing its glad tidings. This was His only focus and what He wanted preached at all times. He had to go preach the Kingdom of God to other cities and sent His disciples out saying they must preach the Kingdom of God too.




Luke 8:1

Is it not clear that Jesus Christ came preaching the Kingdom of God (Matthew 4:17-23; 9:35; 10:7; 24:14; Luke 4:43; 8:1; 9:2, 60; Luke 16:16)? Does this not suggest that this was what He wanted to be preached at all times? It certainly seems that way! It was His only focus! He says He had to go and preach to other cities the Kingdom of God, and He sent His disciples out, saying, "You preach the Kingdom of God too."
