    From 1 Corinthians 9:1 it appears that an Apostle is one who has seen the Lord. Luke probably never actually met the Lord. So, he would never be included in the group of official Apostles. It might also be noticed that the Apostle Paul never met the Lord Jesus during His ministry, but did meet Him at his conversion on the road to Damascus (see Acts...

    Mark’s history is quite different. I don’t think I can do better than to include here the description given in the introduction of William Kelly’s exposition of the gospel of Mark. To recap, Mark was probably fairly young when the Lord was on earth and he grew up in a believing home in the early church (Acts 12:12). It is encouraging that the appar...

    • Peter. Without question, Peter was a "duh"-ciple most people can identify with. One minute he was walking on water by faith, and the next he was sinking in doubt.
    • Andrew. The apostle Andrew abandoned John the Baptist to become the first follower of Jesus of Nazareth, but John the Baptist didn't mind. He knew his mission was to point people to the Messiah.
    • James. Each of the synoptic Gospels identify James as an early disciple of Jesus. James the son of Zebedee, often called James the Greater to distinguish him from the other apostle named James, was a member of Christ's inner circle, which included his brother, the apostle John, and Peter.
    • John. The apostle John, brother to James, was nicknamed by Jesus one of the "sons of thunder," but he liked to call himself "the disciple whom Jesus loved."
    • Peter. Also known as Simon, Simon Peter, or Cephas (Rock), Peter was a gregarious, natural leader, and an obvious spokesperson for the twelve. Peter’s name is mentioned far more in the New Testament than any other of the disciples.
    • Andrew. An early disciple of John the Baptist, Andrew, and John, the Son of Zebedee were present when John the Baptist said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
    • James. James is the elder brother of John. He is a rather quiet part of the team of disciples in that we don’t read much about him in Scripture. As part of Jesus’ “inner three” he was permitted to be present along with Peter and John when Jesus raised Jairus’ daughter from the dead (Mark 5:37), he witnessed Jesus’ transfiguration on the Mount of Olives (Matthew 17:1), and he was in the Garden of Gethsemane with Jesus.
    • John. Known as the “disciple Jesus loved,” he was also a part of the inner three. (John 3:23) He wrote a large portion of the New Testament—The book of John, 1, 2, and 3 John, and the book of Revelation.
  3. Feb 14, 2024 · In each of the gospels, Matthew is listed as one of the twelve disciples of Jesus (Matthew 10:3, Mark 3:18, Luke 6:15, and Acts 1:13). In Mark and Luke, Matthew is also referred to as Levi, the son of Alphaeus, the Tax Collector (Mark 2:14, Luke 5:27).

  4. Feb 14, 2024 · Saint Mark the Apostle. In the dispersion of the apostles for propagating the gospel is different parts of the world, after our Lord’s ascension into heaven, Saint Mark was by Peter sent into Egypt, where he soon planted a church in Alexandria, the metropolis; and such was his success, that he converted great multitudes of people, both men ...

  5. According to Wikipedia, it is possible that Mark and Luke were included in the Seventy disciples (check the list of Seventy disciples). If this is the case, it is no wonder that Mark and Luke could write the Story of Jesus accurately.
