What gospel reference that tells how the Apostles were chosen?
Matthew 9:35- 10:4 shows who Jesus' twelve apostles were by name and it shows what commission was set out for these men. Jesus at this time was on a preaching campaign where he cured a woman and raised a little girl from the dead. His disciples were followers with him and witnesses of his power. The end of chapter 9 shows Jesus' desire for a broader teaching campaign, saying there Needed to be " more workers" or more disciples to preach Gods word. So it was after this that he appointed these 12 disciples to become apostles. These men were granted power to expel unclean spirits and power to cure sicknesses. In this way, witnesses of these acts could draw faith in Gods holy spirit and become believers the same way these 12 apostles became believers by witnessing Jesus' power to do such things, such power coming from God. Although men today do not perform such things, true followers of Jesus are granted Gods holy spirit to continue the preaching and teaching campaign that Jesus initiated.
Does Jesus talk with Eli?
If you mean Elijah, yes -witnessed by several apostles, in the air with Moses at the same time.
Where were the apostles sent to be witnesses?
Just like a court room has witnesses who tells the jury what happened or what they saw, in the same way the Apostles did the same for Jesus Christ, when they witnessed his miracles, his teachings, and his death and resurrection. Also in Christendom, to be "a witness" means to tell others about Jesus Christ and the things that He did and said.
Are aposltes and disciples the same thing?
Anyone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ is a disciple of Jesus Christ. Apostles, however, had the specific role of establishing church communities, versus the evangelist who preaches. God has given some apostles, some prophets, evangelists, pastors, etc. So in a manner of speaking, the apostles were all disciples, but not all the disciples were apostles.
Are the apostles part of the trinity?
Trinity means "three-in-one" and refers to the concept that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are all one and the same God. The apostles are not part of the Trinity. No. The apostles were 'messengers' for Jesus. The principal apostles were the 12 disciples who followed Jesus, and Paul. The Trinity is a term for the Christian notion of three Gods in one - God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
Is the Apostles Creed the same as the Acts of the Apostles?
The Apostle's Creed is a statement of beliefs used by several Christian denominations including Catholicism. The Acts of the Apostles is a book in the New Testament of the Bible. It is normally placed immediately after the four gospel books and follows the early ministry of the apostles after the resurrection of Jesus.
When did Jesus create catholicism?
Jesus did not create Catholicism. The apostles, after Jesus died, started Christianity. Catholicism was kind of the same thing because the apostle, Peter, was the first pope... not really sure how that part worked out, actually.
Do Mormons still have their secret powers?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) do not and have never had secret powers. They do have priesthood power, which is the power of God manifest on earth. Through this power they are able to heal the sick and perform other miracles through the laying on of hands according to the faith of the recipient. They believe that this is the same power Jesus gave to His Apostles in the New Testament, resotored to the prophet Joseph Smith by Apostles Peter, James, and John in 1829. The priesthood is no secret. Anyone, Mormon or not, is welcome to recieve or watch a blessing and add their faith to the blessing. Check out the "Related Links" to learn more.

What is the written record of Jesus's life?
the new testament, and if your unfamiliar with the bible that would be books like, but not limited to, Mathew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts of the Apostles etc. Since this is the only written record of Jesus's life (about the same as Harry Potter and Santa) it's doubtful Jesus existed.
When did the Ascension take place?
A:The apostle Paul seems to have believed that the resurrection of Jesus and his ascension to heaven were the same event. For him, the risen Jesus did not appear on earth in the flesh. Luke's Gospel says that the ascension of Jesus took place on the road to Bethany on the evening of his resurrection.Acts of the Apostles, by the same author as Luke but written somewhat later, says that the ascension took place forty days after the resurrection of Jesus, at the mount of Olivetoutside Jerusalem.
