Who did Jesus take to the mountain with him when he was transfigured?
Scripture does not name the mountain. It says Jesus took Peter, James and John up to a high mountain. See Matthew 17:1 and Mark 9:2.
What did some of the disciples do before they became disciples?
Matthew was a tax collector; Peter, Andrew, James, and John were fishermen; possibly three others were fishermen as well (John 21:2). Other than these, the Bible does not say.
Who made up pentecostal religion?
Look into the Bible in the book of Acts Chapter 2. You will find the disciples of Jesus received the Holy Spirit on the day of pentecost. You will see that when asked what was going on by people that were in the city, Peter a disciple of Jesus stood up with the other disciples and told the people what was happening. They also told them what they to needed to do to be saved. So though Jesus told the disciples what to do, it was Peter who preached the 1st lesson on salvation. This is where "pentecostal" belief started.
Who are the 2 friends of Jesus?
Off hand, I would say that of the twelve disciples, John and Peter were His two closest friends. John, in his gospel called himself "the disciple whom Jesus loved". Peter was the one who after he had denied Jesus three times, was asked by Jesus: "Peter do you love me?" three times.
Which disciple brought the boy with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes to Jesus?
The disciple who brought the boy with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes to Jesus was Andrew.
What power did the Holy Spirit give to the Apostles?
A:Acts chapter 2 says that the Holy Spirit gave the disciples the power to speak in other languages. Surprisingly, he did not give them the ability to read and write, as Acts later mentions Peter as illiterate.
Who caught 153 fish?
Seven of the disciples; Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, the sons of Zebedee (James and John), and two others.John 21:1-31 After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way. 2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Why did Jesus go on the mountain?
Jesus went to the mountain to pray as the scripture says:And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.(Mark 6.46)Four of these times are recorded in the Gospels.Answer:He would go to a mountain to escape the crowds of people that followed Him; both for solitude and prayer... and so that He could be alone with His disciples. They would follow Him up... but there was no room to support the multitudes."And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain: and when He was set, His disciples came unto Him: and He opened His mouth, and taught them..." (Matt.5:1-2).And sometimes, when no mountain was near, He just sent the people away and took His disciples into His house: "Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and His disciples came unto Him..." (Matt.13:36).
How many of John the Baptist's disciples left him for Jesus?
A:In John's Gospel (verses 1:37-40), Andrew and another disciple left John the Baptist to follow Jesus. Andrew went to Peter's house to tell him about Jesus, and Peter then followed. In the synoptic gospels, none of John's disciples left him to follow Jesus. Peter and Andrew were chosen by Jesus as he walked by the Sea of Galilee and saw them fishing.
Were all of Jesus' disciples from Galilee?
No.Eleven of the twelve "Apostles" were from Galilee. Judas was apparently from Judea. 'Disciples', however, came (and COME) from every nation.(Acts 1:8)For starters, on Pentecost, after Jesus died, Peter and the apostles, spoke to people from many nationalities and locations, and 3,000 of them accepted Jesus Christ and were baptized as his disciples. (Acts 2:40-41)
How were disciples chosen?
Jesus just called them as he saw them on the road, peter and Andrew by the sea Matthew by the tax table.And so on.
Who of the original twelve disciples wrote books of the Bible?
Christian tradition attributes the Gospels of Matthew and John to two of the twelve disciples. Epistles are also attributed to James, John, Jude and Peter.Actually, none of the twelve disciples wrote any book that we see in the New Testament. The four gospels were written anonymously and were only attributed th the disciples whose names they now bear, later in the second century. Scholars say that these gospels were not written by eyewitnesses to the events they portray. None of the epistles can be attributed to any of the disciples. In fact, Jude clearly identifies itself as a second-century book, while 2 Peter includes almost all of the material in Jude, proof that 2 Peter was also written during the second century. Scholars have looked closely at all these works to find evidence of the original disciples, but see nothing in the gospels or epistles that points back to any of the disciples.
