Disciple vs Apostle

Are we Disciples or Apostles (Apostles Creed) Apostolic


An apostle is a “messenger” or “one who is sent” while a disciple is a “student” or “learner.” Apostles were primarily people who had met and followed Jesus during his life and were called by him to spread the gospel. Disciples were simply any of Jesus’ followers who devoted themselves to learning from him.

The Last Supper Theory
At the Last Supper, Jesus was with his apostles. The term “apostle” refers to the twelve disciples whom Jesus chose to follow him closely and who were later sent out to preach. While Jesus had many other disciples, it was specifically with these twelve that he shared the Last Supper.
Key points:

Last Supper: The final meal that Jesus shared with his apostles before his crucifixion.

Apostles: The twelve disciples whom Jesus chose to follow him closely and who were later sent out to preach.
Disciples: A broader term for followers of Jesus.
