12 Disciples of Jesus: Peter – Part 1
Simon, as he was born, was born in the small town of Bethsaida, which is on the north side of Galilee. “Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.” (John 1:44) His name was Jonah, or Simon, son of Jonas, while Jonah is what he’s called. So his father’s name was Jonah. And at some point, Peter, his wife, his brother Andrew, and his mother-in-law moved to the bigger town of Capernaum, where Jesus would come to live after he was rejected at Nazareth. He became a believer when Andrew, his brother, introduced him to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Upper Room Discourse: Discourse of Joy – Part 2
In this passage, the Lord Jesus Christ teaches his disciples that true joy comes from believing the truth rather than relying on external circumstances. He encourages them to rejoice in the Lord and reminds them of the numerous instances of joy mentioned in Scripture. The disciples are urged to remember the joy they felt when they first received salvation and to find joy in the knowledge that they can share in Christ’s joy through his sacrifice. The resurrection of Jesus is highlighted as a source of joy, along with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The passage emphasizes that this joy is a permanent possession that cannot be taken away and encourages believers to maintain a joyful mindset by focusing on God’s Word. The disciples are assured that they can ask for and receive from Jesus to have their joy fulfilled. Ultimately, they are called to remember their salvation joy, appropriate Christ’s joy, and let it shine through their lives as a testimony to others.
