After his resurrection, Jesus invited his downhearted apostles to attend a special meeting. (Matt. 28:10, 18) Jesus did not reprimand his apostles; nor did he use that meeting to question their motives or to deepen their feelings of guilt by referring to their momentary weakness of faith. Instead, Jesus reassured them of his and his Father’s love by entrusting them with a weighty assignment. (Matt. 28:18-20) They were so upbuilt, encouraged, and consoled that some time after that meeting, they were once again “teaching and declaring the good news.”—Acts 5:42. w10 10/15 4:14, 15
