Who were the 12 Disciples?
The 12 Disciples, also known as the Apostles of Jesus Christ, played a crucial role in the New Testament. Chosen by Jesus himself, they were a diverse group of individuals who dedicated their lives to spreading the teachings of Christianity. From Peter, James, and John to Matthew, Thomas, and Judas Iscariot, each disciple had a unique journey and story that contributed to the rich tapestry of Christian history.
