Wgo were the first 12 Apostles in Christ
Jesus Christ selected twelve men from among his early followers to become his closest disciples. They had no extraordinary skills.
Neither religious, nor refined, they were ordinary people, just like you and me. They would have been considered common men in their day.
We find the names of the twelve apostles in: Matthew 10:2-4 Mark 3:14-19 Luke 6:13-16:
And when day came, he called his disciples and chose from them twelve, whom he named apostles: Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot, and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor (ESV).
The replacement for Judas Isacariot (ACTS 1:26)
And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
These men became the pioneering leaders of the New Testament church, but they were not without faults and shortcomings. Interestingly, not one of the chosen twelve disciples was a scholar or rabbi.
Jesus taught his apostles about the kingdom of heaven, and in return he learned much from them about the kingdom of men.
These twelve men represented many different types of human temperament.
In a religious sense, they were laymen, unlearned in the lore of the rabbis and untrained in the methods of rabbinical interpretation of the Scriptures.
God chose them for a purpose—to fan the flames of the gospel that would spread across the face of the earth and continue to burn bright throughout the centuries to follow.
He selected and used each of these regular guys to carry out his exceptional plan. Their love and loyalty to Jesus made them uncommon heroes.
After an intensive discipleship course and following his resurrection from the dead, the Lord fully commissioned the apostles (Matthew 28:16-2, Mark 16:15) to advance God's kingdom and carry the gospel message to the world.
Take a few moments now to learn a lesson or two from the twelve apostles—men who
helped ignite the light of truth that still dwells within our hearts today and calls us to
come and follow Jesus Christ.
