One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, We have found the Messiah (which is translated, the Christ).

One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans.

And they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them.

But when Jesus saw it, He was indignant and said to them, Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.

And John answered and said, Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us.

But Jesus said to him, Do not forbid him, for whoever is not against us is for us.
