The twelve apostles are the closest disciples of Jesus Christ, who chose him to bless the impending Kingdom of God and to distribute the Church. The names of the apostles should be known to all.
Many contemporary people do not know that the word "apostle" means "send."
At the time Jesus Christ passed on our sinful earth, twelve ordinary people called His disciples. As eyewitnesses said, "twice the disciples followed Him and learned from Him."
At the end of two days after His death, through the crucifixion, He sent His disciples to become His witnesses.
