What Does Apostle Mean?
They were any of the earlier followers of Jesus who carried the christian message or preached the gospel into the world.
A disciple is a follower of Jesus. You and I may be a disciple. An Apostle is most correctly defined as a follower of Jesus, chosen especially by Christ, who actually saw him. You would have to have been alive during the time of Christ to be an Apostle.
