在福音书中，我们也可以看见主差遣门徒。祂差遣十二个人走遍各城各乡，访问以色列家迷失的羊，把平安带给他们（太十5-8，11-13）。当主耶稣在地上的时候，祂并不召集聚会，乃是一直出去访问。祂访问加利利、犹太和耶路撒冷。祂访问了马大和马利亚的家（路十38-39），和患麻疯的西门的家（太二六6）。主一直是借着访问人完成祂的职事。这种访问人将救恩和三一神的丰富带给他们的实行，与今天变形且堕落之基督教的实行是绝对相对的。我们必须从那种堕落的光景中蒙拯救，回到主的路上。
主差遣十二个门徒时，吩咐他们要走遍各城各乡，访问迷失的羊。我们应当跟从主，到新的城市、小的乡镇作同样的事。十二这个数目在圣经中具有特别的意义。十二是由四乘三而来，就是三一神（三）乘上人（四）。十二是指三一神与三部分之人的调和。我们若有十二位圣徒所组成的福音小组，可以分为四队，每队三位圣徒。我们乃是联于三一神出外叩门。我们是一些与三一神调和的人出外叩门。
主也差遣七十人走遍各城各地，寻找平安之子（路十1-6）。我们也必须作同样的事。按照路加十章，这些平安之子乃是在狼中间的（路十3）。一个人在某天晚上可能是悖逆之子，到了第二天晚上可能是平安之子。一位丈夫也许刚和妻子吵过架，那天晚上你访问他时，他可能是悖逆之子。但是第二天也许一些使他高兴的事发生了，那天晚上你去访问他时，他可能就是平安之子。那可能正是你将神圣生命的种子撒在他里面的时候。

The Lord’s Sending Out Disciples (1) – Mark 16:15
In the four Gospel books, we see examples of the Lord sending out His disciples to visit the lost sheep of the house of Israel, going through cities and villages to bring peace to them (Mark 10:5-8, 11-13). When the Lord Jesus was on earth, He did not primarily gather people for meetings but continually went out to visit others. He visited Galilee, Judea and Jerusalem. He went to the house of Martha and Mary (Luke 10:38-39) and to the house of Simon the leper (Mark 26:6). The Lord carried out His ministry through these visits, bringing salvation and the riches of the Triune God to people. This practice of visiting is entirely different from the deformed and fallen practices of today’s Christianity. We have to be delivered from such a fallen state and return to the Lord’s way.
When the Lord sent out the twelve disciples and commanded them to go through cities and villages to visit the lost sheep. We should follow the Lord’s example, going to new cities and small towns to do the same. The number twelve in the Bible has a special significance. It is the product of four times three: the Triune God (three) multiplied by man (four). Twelve signifies the mingling of the Triune God with tripartite man. If a gospel group of twelve saints is formed, it can be divided into four teams, each with three saints. We are people mingled with the Triune God, going out to knock on doors.
