The apostles were Jesus' followers. They not only believed what he said, but they tried to act on it (live righteously.) When Jesus died for human sin and then rose again, they spread the mesage of salvation through faith, despite persecution from non-believers.
In response to Jesus' teaching on the Eucharist, when asked if the twelve would also leave, Peter famously replied, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life." This statement reflects Peter's recognition of Jesus' unique authority and the belief that only He offers the true path to salvation. Despite the difficult teaching, Peter and the apostles affirmed their commitment to Jesus, acknowledging that there was no alternative to the life and truth He provided.

Jesus did not spread Christianity , but the apostles and Paul spread it over the world.
Technically, the bulk of Jesus' ministry was in the last three years of his life.
While Jesus was on earth during His ministry the disciples/apostles mainly learned what Jesus taught and did. It was a great schooling for them. After Jesus died, was resurrected and ascended into heaven the apostles preached "Jesus as Savior", taught, and organised the church. The teaching involved instructing others to continue in the doctrines of Christ so that the "good news" (Gospel) would continue to be preached. And today we can see that this was successful as the Gospel is still being preached today in the true churches all over the world.
The written account of Jesus's life and teachings is the New Testament of the Christian Bible.
In the Gospel of John, Jesus breathed on his apostles to give them the Holy Spirit and empower them for their mission to spread the good news of salvation. This act symbolized the giving of the Holy Spirit and the commissioning of the apostles to carry out their ministry.
After the death of Jesus. Paul taught of the life and works of Jesus Christ and his teaching of a New Covenant
Christianity. The Bible is the 'handbook' for Christians.
The 12 apostles were followers chosen by Jesus to spread his teachings. They played a key role in his ministry, witnessing his miracles, teachings, and ultimately his crucifixion and resurrection. They were instrumental in establishing the early Christian church and spreading the message of Jesus after his death.
